Welcome to Jule from CrossFit New England (doing AbMats above in the yellow shirt) who dropped in today with Don for the WOD and crushed it!
Veterans Day, also known as Armistice Day or Remembrance Day in other parts of the world, falls on the anniversary of the signing of the Armistice that ended World War I. United States President Woodrow Wilson first proclaimed an Armistice Day for November 11, 1919 by saying, “To us in America, the reflections of Armistice Day will be filled with lots of pride in the heroism of those who died in the country’s service and with gratitude for the victory, both because of the thing from which it has freed us and because of the opportunity it has given America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the councils of the nations.”
Notes:
This Sunday is “Movie with A Mission” at the North Bend Theatre, to benefit the CARES Foundation. Why are we telling you this? Nan close friends’ child suffers from Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia. She also asked us to promote awareness and donate something to the silent auction for the benefit (we donated a “Elements package”).
Here’s the background in Nan’s own words:
“I wanted to forward you some information from my very close friends Dawn & Mark — Their son Wyatt was born with a condition called CAH, or Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia – and each year they choose a venue to raise funds to donate to the CARES Foundation, working for a cure for CAH. A few years back Dawn and I hiked 38 miles in 24 hours for “Hike for a Cure” — This year they’ve rented out the North Bend Theatre on Nov. 14th for a family-friendly movie and silent auction, all proceeds going towards CARES.”
