Spooktacular Halloween Party at 306
They say you haven't WODed until you've done it in costume. Well 306, here is your chance. Come and show off your best Halloween costumes on Saturday, Oct 27th. The festivities will begin at 10:30 AM and conclude at 2:30PM. Teams of four will be created on site and compete in a series of devillish WODs. Don't worry if you have just started or have been with us for months, all workouts and movements are scaled to the individual. It will be a fun day and one you won't want to miss. We will have activities set up for the kids as well, so if you want to bring your little ones all dressed up, they are all welcome and will get some treats too;).
We will be awarding prizes for best costumes, and the winning team. There will be sign up sheets at the front desk at the gym. Please let us know if you will be coming. There will be a sheet for adults as well as kids. This will help us to plan the logistics of the day. We look forward to an awesome community event!

306 Puts forward a dominating performance at the BCBD!
Well as I sit here sipping on my latte and reflect on the last two days of competition I can't help but smile. After two crushing days of WODs our team fared incredibly well.
In the women's Brute competition, Chandra took home top spot in the clean cluster, Viki took top spots in the toes to bar WOD and the final, and Laurie won the Chipper. So 306 won all the WODs in this category, incredible.
The final standings saw Laurie Thomson take first, Mel finished third, and Viki made and won the final WOD but was edged off the podium and finished fourth.
In the men's Brute, Nathan would edge out Jeff Woo in the final WOD and bump Jeff off the podium. Nathan would take third overall, The Woo, fourth. Stephane finished just outside the top ten and placed 11th.
In the Ladie's Beast category Laura Wehrkamp took on the top female competitions from the Prairies and finished in 5th place. She finished 3rd in the Handstand/KBS couplet and third again in the clean cluster.
In the men's Beast category. Leo continued to show that he has a heart of a lion and strung together his first set of MU and fought hard through all the WODS and finished in 26th. Aaron "Wonderkid" Parker would finished in tenth after qualifying for the finals with dominating performances in the Toes to Bar WOD (3rd), and the MU/thruster couplet (5th).
Coach had a great couple of days, winning WOD 3,6,and 7, and taking second place in both WOD five and eight, ultimately finishing second.

Our performance at this competition was truly exceptional and is another step and making our Box world class! Congrats 306 you rocked it!

Bonjour from Paris!
Here's a little update from two of our members, Janelle and Brad, currently touring Europe.
"Hi coach! Janelle and I have been walking lots, and trying to do travel WODS in our tiny European apartments. Today we visited Crossfit Louvre (you'd have more luck with their website as it's written in French!) Their box will not be open untill Sept but they do drop ins, (we tried some ring dips and pull ups, box jumps and med balls. They did a 70 min outdoor wod near the Louve (surreal). About 35 people there, and we represented Canada / 306 by both finishing in the top 6 - not that we are competitive... it was 5 rds of 400 m run and 50 airsquats. Then we "cooled off" with 50 burpees. Glad to be doing Crossfit again, the folks here are welcoming but we miss you guys! Going back Mon, squeezing it in between a Versailles bike tour and wine tasting excursions. Promise to run around Louvre museum and gardens tomorrow!! See you in a few weeks."
