Buncombe County Special Olympics Rowdown Throwdown
Nov 9 @ 10:00 am – 2:00 pm

Buncombe County Special Olympics and South Slope CrossFit’s Adaptive Athlete program will be hosting a benefit rowathon. Our Rowdown Throwdown will consist of teams of 10 rowing a marathon (42,195 meters) for time. Rowing can be split however your teams decides to split it up. If you split it evenly then each person will row 4,220 meters which takes approximately 20min – 30min total time on the rower.

Our goal is to raise $10,000 which will be split 50/50 between both Buncombe County Special Olympics and the South Slope CrossFit Adaptive Athlete Program.

If you do not have a team then no problem. We can place you on a team (just register under the individual looking for a team).

This event is meant to be fun for everyone and we plan to make sure you all have fun.

This event is open to individuals of all ages and athletic ability.

We are seeking corporate sponsorships as well. If you are interested then please get in contact with either Scott Mirkin of South Slope CrossFit ([email protected]) or Karla Furnari of Buncombe County Special Olympics ([email protected]).
