Post time to responses.

Members of our CrossFit community lost their precious, 4 year-old son, Colby, in a tragic accident last month.  His parents (Josh and Arami), the Owasso Fire Department, and the CrossFit community are in the works of developing numerous fundraisers on behalf of Colby to find a cure for Angelman syndrome (any donations can be made to www.cureangelman.org).  CF Owasso has put together this memory WOD, on behalf of Colby.

The Saturday Free Introductory Class at 11am is canceled for tomorrow.
