At CrossFit Dwell, we believe fitness is about more than what happens inside the gym. We believe in building a stronger community, using what we can do to serve others, and finding ways to make a difference beyond ourselves.
That’s why we’re excited to host Meters for McKenna on Saturday, October 17, from 8:00 AM–12:00 PM.
This community rowing event will bring together CrossFit Dwell members, friends, families, and nonmembers for a morning of teamwork, friendly competition, and fundraising for McKenna Farms Therapy Services, an organization dedicated to providing life-changing therapy for children with special needs.
And yes, there will be rowing. A lot of rowing.
What Is Meters for McKenna?
Meters for McKenna is a team rowing challenge where groups of four will work together to accumulate as many meters as possible while raising money for McKenna Farms.
Think of it as part workout, part fundraiser, and part community gathering with a little friendly competition thrown in for good measure.
You don’t need to be an experienced rower or a CrossFit athlete to participate. Members and nonmembers are welcome, so grab your friends, family, coworkers, or anyone who is up for a fun challenge.
Don’t have a team of four? No problem. We’ll help you find one.
Why McKenna Farms?
McKenna Farms Therapy Services provides therapeutic services for children with special needs, helping them develop skills, confidence, independence, and greater opportunities to participate in everyday life.
Their work makes a meaningful difference for children and their families, and Meters for McKenna gives our community a chance to support that mission in a very CrossFit Dwell way: by moving, working together, and having some fun while we do it.
We spend a lot of time celebrating that our bodies can get stronger, move better, learn new skills, and accomplish things we once thought were impossible.
This event gives us a chance to use those abilities to help someone else celebrate the same thing.
Four People. One Team. A Whole Lot of Meters.
Teams of four will work together throughout the event to rack up meters on the rowers.
And that’s where the fun and maybe a little competitive spirit comes in.
Who goes first? Who takes the longest pulls? Who claims they’re “not competitive” and then becomes VERY interested in the leaderboard?
We will encourage each other, push through the hard parts, and celebrate every meter we put on the board.
That’s what we love about team events. You don’t have to do it alone.
You Don’t Have to Be a CrossFit Dwell Member
We want this to be a community event, which means everyone is invited.
Bring a friend who has never tried CrossFit or someone who works out at another gym. Bring your spouse, your kids, your coworkers, or someone who just wants to do something active for a great cause.
No CrossFit experience is required. Just show up ready to row, have some fun, and support an amazing organization.
And if you don’t have a team yet, we’ll help you put one together.
How Much Does It Cost?
We’re asking for a suggested donation of $50, but donations of any amount are appreciated.
Our goal is to get as many people involved as possible and collectively make a meaningful contribution to McKenna Farms Therapy Services.
Every team, every dollar, and every meter adds up.
Let’s Make Some Meters
Fitness can sometimes become very individual. We track our workouts, chase PRs, and work toward our own goals.
But we are excited about taking that individual effort and turning it outward.
Getting stronger is great. Getting stronger together, and using that strength to help others is even better.
So grab three friends, or let us help you find a team, and join us at CrossFit Dwell for Meters for McKenna.
