On September 26th, Summit CrossFit began to take on water. This is nothing new for us, to get an inch or two of water inside by our bay doors on heavy rain days. However, nothing could have prepared us for the main event on September 27th, which brought more rain, wind, and devastation than the whole WNC area was prepared for or has ever seen. Summit had 13 FEET of water inside its walls after Helene had ravaged her way through the area. Many of our neighboring business and warehouse were simply washed away, twisted up into scrap metal, down river. After the waters receded and debris was moved enough for us to get inside the building, we saw only utter devastation and a solid foot of thick, toxic mud coating everything that was left.

Weeks of dirty work, salvaging what equipment we could, if it hadn't washed away, many hours of volunteer man power, and we have realized that our current location, Summit CrossFit's home since its inception in 2013, can not be salvaged. However, we ARE Summit Strong, we are community of folks who don't quit and don't give up. We will rebuild, and we will rebuild stronger.

Buying one of these shirts will not only get you one of these limited run Summit shirts, but will help us rebuild as soon as possible, giving you or your loved one their gym community a space to call home again. We thank you for your commitment to your community, and we thank you for your support during a time that is VERY difficult for all of us, in the greater WNC area. Strong for the Journey, friends. We will do this, together.
