We would like to thank everyone that donated to the myFace Fundraiser last week, it was a great success! Here is a little note from the organizer:

Dear CrossFit Draper,

I want to personally thank all who participated and donated to myFace. It was great to see pictures of you all come together to honor the children of myFace. We exceeded the goal of $1,000 and with your help, we raised over $1,600. This will provide a crucial support system for the patients receiving treatment. Our children bond with each other and develop friendships in a warm, inviting atmosphere and this in a great deal is because of your support.

Cheers, Eddie

The Nightmare Before Christmas – Tim Burton’s Original Poem

“It’s said that All Hallows’ Eve is one of the nights when the veil between the worlds is thin – and whether you believe in such things or not, those roaming spirits probably believe in you, or at least acknowledge your existence, considering that it used to be their own. Even the air feels different on Halloween, autumn-crisp and bright.”

~Erin Morgenstern

“The worst thing about Halloween is, of course, candy corn. It’s unbelievable to me. Candy corn is the only candy in the history of America that’s never been advertised. And there’s a reason. All of the candy corn that was ever made was made in 1911. And so, since nobody eats that stuff, every year there’s a ton of it left over.”

~Lewis Black
