The Final Tally For FGB IV
Congratulations Cedar Park! You guys did an awesome job for Fight Gone Bad IV. FGB IV raised over 1 million dollars world wide. We placed first in our region for the under 25 competitor category raising over 7 thousand dollars towards The Wounded Warrior Project and Athletes For a Cure. This was our first time participating in the annual FGB fundraiser. Next year will prove to be even better.
All of our competitors did an awesome job in fundraising as well as busting their butt in the WOD. There were several competitors who did Fight Gone Bad for the first time as well as several PR's. Can't wait for next year guys. What a great community we have here at CrossFit Cedar Park. You always come together to help those in need and never shy away from a challenge or wod. You excelled at FGB IV and you were there for those at Fort Hood for The Lumberjack 20. Keep it up CrossFitters. You guys Rock!

CALL TO ACTION
20 NOVEMBER 2009
Many in the CrossFit community were affected by the tragic shootings at Fort Hood, but none as directly as one of our affiliates, Lumberjack Crossfit . Four members of that affiliate were killed.
CrossFit is launching a hero WOD fundraiser for our four fallen Soldiers. On December 5th, we are asking affiliates and individuals to do two things: participate in the workout (as a display of solidarity with Lumberjack CrossFit) and to reach out to family, friends, and strangers to donate whatever you can.

Several of our CrossFitters are going up to Fort Hood to participate in this workout. They each have individual donation pages, so click on their name to donate.
