This is a great event for the first time competitor and challenging enough for the seasoned lifter. Registration is now open. Online registration is available at getmeregistered.com.

Last year’s competition saw more than 40 athletes, with an overwhelming atmosphere of sportsmanship and support for all lifters.

Madison Stewart, a previous competitor said, "I loved how encouraging everyone was. Even though it was a competition people were constantly saying 'you can do it' or 'great job'. High fives were everywhere and it was awesome!"
