Staff Report From Augusta CEO

Wednesday, November 18th, 2015

The Wilson Family YMCA’s CrossFit and RAWFIT boot camp will unveil new additions to its current functional fitness programming on Saturday November 21 from 10:00 am until noon.

“CrossFit has been a great addition to our health and wellness programs for our YMCA’s in the Greater Augusta area,” says Danny McConnell, President/CEO for the Family YMCA of Greater Augusta.

Some of the new additions to the CrossFit programming at the Wilson Family Y include a new outdoor training area as well as a new mobility class.

The Wilson Y CrossFit box, which opened in January 2014, was the first YMCA CrossFit location for the Family YMCA of Greater Augusta. Since the Wilson Y CrossFit box opened in 2014, three more YMCA branches have added CrossFit to their programming.  

“Our members and the CSRA have fully embraced the addition of CrossFit to our health and wellness program at the Wilson Family Y,” says Krystal McGee, Executive Branch Director for the Wilson Family YMCA. “We’re looking forward to accommodating our ever-growing CrossFit community in the CSRA with these new additions to our CrossFit and RAWFIT programs.”

This event is open to anyone in the community. Anyone who joins as a member of the Wilson Family Y during this event on Saturday can enjoy no Joiner’s Fee when signing up for membership.
