Crossfit Ball

On Saturday we had a huge crossfit event run by some of the athletes called the Crossfit Ball. It was hosted at the Radisson Blue and was very fancy and fun. We had delicious and healthy food, lottery, and an auction which was all very entertaining. It was a lot of fun to see all the people in more formal clothes rather than our normal training clothes. Many danced and even though it was formal we were quite a lot of fun. Even though there was quite a bit of alcohol (we were sponsored by a wine shop) everyone kept an eye to make sure I didn't drink since I was the only underage athlete there. At first the auction was like a normal auction until we started to auction of people. We got a lot of money for our head trainer Nathan to do 16.5 in a tutu. And a date with one of the athletes as well as other things. Lastly we had a lottery where I sold many tickets to help out. The owner of the box who was calling out the winners actually pulled me up to pull a number out of the hat and gave a small speech about me. All the money we raised was going to a girl who had done really well in her studies so that she can continue in school. We managed to raise more money than needed so we are saving that money for next year when we might be able to raise even more money. Everyone had fun even though it always took a few extra seconds to recognize everyone.
