Pam and Dave explained how they have been organizing their efforts with the help of CrossFit HQ and assistance from a lot of CrossFitters. The CrossFit event will take place on July 12 and 13.
32:10 Mike Moody is what he likes to call the “caretaker” of CrossFit Fort Benning. He explained the history behind the non-profit military affiliate and the process one would need to go through in order to establish such a box.
