The Heart is in the Community
The dust has started to settle for the event team and another MACC FEST is in the books! We say this year after year but our goal since 2012 was to strengthen the CrossFit Community in the region by bringing athletes out from their local box. We all live and breathe CrossFit but our busy lives keep most of our training in the gym. MAAC/MACC was born to provide the biggest stage for the CrossFit community in the Mid-Atlantic region. Bringing affiliates together is what it is all about!
Athletes - I hope MACC FEST has given you purpose in your training. It was encouraging to see all of our athletes challenge themselves through our programmed events. Regardless of your fitness goals, thank you for trusting our team. We take pride in the details and we hope you personally experienced those aspects of the event that made you feel like you’re a professional athlete. As we do every year, we will continue to reflect on the athlete surveys to improve for next year.
Staff - The professionalism, hard work and attention to detail was second to none. We stepped into an empty venue and there were so many team leads and departments that worked together to get the show up and running. The athletes were able to showcase their fitness because the event team took care of everything else. Running these events are tough but the passion and dedication of our event team kept me and our team leads laser focused. Thank you for being a part of of something bigger than ourselves.
As always, the team will go back to the drawing board. Plenty of feedback to consider, surveys to review, and aspects of the event to improve. We’re excited for the challenge to continuing providing memorable experiences within the CrossFit Community. Thank you again for support of MACC FEST. Until next year…prepare.
-Wilson Pak, Event Director
