About the event
Donations can be made through #IVEGOTYOURBACK911 Here
This year Shawn has decided to support the #IVEGOTYOURBACK911 campaign, which supports all those who have to deal with traumatic incidents in the workplace. The campaign proudly supports Paramedics, Police, Fire, Emergency Telecommunications, Nurses, Corrections and the Military. Proceeds will also be donated to Boots On The Ground, which is an anonymous helpline providing confidential and anonymous peer support to First Responders across the province, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It is a charitable organization completely run and staffed by volunteers. This will be the third year that CrossFit Orangeville's very own coach and Peel Police Officer Shawn Pontone is doing the 12-hour event to create awareness and help raise funds for first responders. Starting on June 15th at 7 am, Shawn & friends will complete a “Hero WOD” every 2 hours until 7 pm. When asked why, Shawn said "I know that I would do anything to protect my brother and sisters in blue along with civilians...sometimes that includes laying your life down...the least I can do for those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice is put my body through hell to raise money to help keep those who continue to serve, supported along with way by these amazing organizations that we are fundraising for.” Let's help Shawn and raise $25,000 for this honourable foundation.
