Last fall, I volunteered at Carolina Barbell Club’s Strengthtoberfest event.
We had an absolute blast, and we raised thousands of dollars for Mental Health America.
This fall, I’m excited to share that we are bringing Strengthtoberfest back on Saturday, October 26th at Brit’s Brothers Gym in Greenville. This year’s proceeds will benefit Upstate Warrior Solution, an outstanding local resource for military veterans, first responders, and their families.
I, myself, have personally benefited from UWS outreach and support, so I am excited to help fundraise for them through an awesome event. Additionally, I will be competing in the event this year instead of helping to run it.
The event includes bench press and deadlift—participants can elect to do either or both events. There is no experience or strength “pre-requisite” to come out and compete. We’ll have food trucks onsite and other great attractions for our spectators.
We are also looking for businesses to sponsor the event in support of our local veterans and first responders. If you run a business and would be interested in sponsoring, please send me a message at mhrichardson1889@gmail.com.
Come out and lift or cheer for our lifters in support of an awesome mission!
