Tuesday, December 2nd

Today's WOD:
Jumping Squats (45/33) 
Deadlift (1/2 Bodyweight)
50-40-30-20-10 reps for time.

Luila and I help support a small volunteer-run orphanage in Masaka, Uganda run by our friends Wilberforce Bezzude and Precious Namazzi.  After hearing some of their firsthand stories of the widespread horrors of the aids epidemic, rampant violence and the 140 parent-less children that they care for, Luila and I decided to try to give each of the children a small stuffed animal to play with and sleep with at night.  After bringing it up to the members of Next Generation CrossFit a few weeks ago, we have collected exactly 70 out of our 140 goal!  (Thanks so much, you guys are awesome!)  
If this interests you at all, please take a few minutes to look through your kids stuffed animals that they may have outgrown (that maybe you haven't known what to do with) and help us help these kids.  We are asking that they be small, soft and in good condition.  We plan to wash them all and ship them off as soon as possible as a Christmas gift. Feel free to call me at 850-5069 if you want to drop anything off. 
Thanks,
Eric
