Hey Gym Family,
It is time to put our strength to use for something much bigger than ourselves. We are coming together as a community for the Lifting for Deana Strength Showdown, a charity event dedicated to raising crucial funds for Deana as she fights her battle against cancer.
Here is how you can get involved, test your strength, and help us make a massive impact:
The Main Event: 5RM Squat Showdown
The Challenge: Step up to the barbell and find your 5-Rep Maximum (5RM) squat
Entry Fee: $10 per person
The Best Part: The gym will be matching every single dollar raised from the event entry fees. Your $10 instantly becomes $20 toward Deana’s fund!
More Ways to Support & Celebrate
Even if you are not lifting, we need your energy and support! We will be hosting a full day of community fundraising activities, including:
Sausage Sizzle: Snag a hot sausage after the lifting wraps up.
Charity Raffles: Buy tickets for a chance to win awesome prizes donated by local businesses and our gym partners.
Donation Bucket: A dedicated station will be set up for anyone wishing to make additional direct contributions.
All proceeds from the entry fees, matching gym funds, sausage sizzle, and raffles will go directly toward supporting Deana and her family during this challenging time.
Event Details
Date: Saturday 19th September
Time: From 8:30am
Location: GYMVT 75 Victoria Lane, Mile End
