Big Bear Update:
I wanted to provide everyone with an update on the Big Bear trip, there’s goods news and more good news! I’ll start with the good news…
Getting into the spirit early, a crossfitters best bear impression
Thanks to a referral by Wags, I was able to find another location very similar to the previous posted location, for about 1/3 the cost. It will be about $85 for, Friday and Saturday. The sleeping arrangements are slightly different, it has 7 bedroom and a large open cabin, so it would basically be like indoor camping (in true cult fashion). There are three full bathrooms so that eliminates the need for extra pine cones…
What to do if you see a bear...
The owner also mentioned that if we can max it out at 30 people we get Thursday night for free… The news just keeps getting better, the unit I’m looking at has a full kitchen and meeting room. The meeting room can be used for both workouts and educational workshops.
Here are some pics of the cabin:
Now for the fine points:
Who: CrossFit South Bay members will have first priority…
What:A final agenda will be announced as we get closer. Basically here’s what will be included in the $85: Lodging, educational workshops, cooking demonstrations and of course as many WOD’s as your heart desires. Id also like to hear any suggestions you may have!
When: The first and second weekend in September are the last two available. In my last post I had about 11 people say they were interested, that leaves about 20 more spots. Email me asap with which weekend works best and you contact information so I can get a list finalized. (Matt@crossfitsouthbay.com) They are going to hold both dates for me for the next two weeks so we have that time to decide.
Where: The cabin is located in the city of Big Bear Lake.
Food: Since there is a large kitchen, I figured we can all chip in and prepare some of the meals as a group. We can figure that out as things get closer.

Hey Everyone. Could all of you with facebook please help a great charity win some money from Chase by voting for them on facebook. It’s as easy as becoming a fan and casting a vote. The non-for-profit is a great facility in Chicago that takes care of physically and mentally handicapped children and adults. They do wonderful work there and are a big part of my family as my brother is one of the adults that lives at the facility. It is amazing what they can do and most of it on outside funding. Please take a second to cast a vote to help them win a little extra money.
