YOUTH DIVISIONS
We’re aiming for an elementary, middle and high school sub-division in our youth categories for Saturday. These will be scaled down versions of the WODS we post for the adults!
WHAT DO WE GET IF WE WIN?
RR is excited to announce a $500 cash prize for the Rx Male and Female Division winners, as well as the Rx Team Winner! Highland Brewing is donating a custom trophy to commemorate the CrossFit champs of Beer City USA! We also have some schwag donated by some of our awesome sponsors to throw in.
WHAT YA GOT TO EAT??
modPaleo…serving Paleo meals on-site both days! Sweet…please support this incredible business, as they are a sponsor for River Ruckus as well. We offer their food out of our box and LOVE THEM. Check them out at www.modpaleo.com
Earth Fare is close by (short drive) for all your grocery and meal options (also a RR Sponsor!). White Duck Taco (right across street from CF Pisgah) has some good stuff as well, but they’ll be closed on Sunday.
WHERE DO I GO?
We’ve posted a map of the event site to our Facebook page (www.facebook.com/riverruckus2013). WODs will be held at Site A, Site B and at CrossFit Pisgah. We’ll have volunteers out to help with parking…much of it depends on how wet it is, as much of the space is city grass (we can’t tear it up!).
Come early…give yourself some time to get parked, to the site and to get checked in.
Registration and packet/shirt pickup will be at CF Pisgah on Friday night, will be at Vendor Area for Saturday and Sunday.

OTHER QUESTIONS
1. Do teams have to be all male or all female?
No. Teams can be any mix of male/female. We will scale scoring and add a
multiplier for teams depending on how many women they have on each team.
2. Will I be able to complete the CrossFit Open if I attend?
Yes. Our first individual workout on Saturday morning will be the 5th and final
CF Open WOD. This should be a great environment to post a wicked time.
3. Can I volunteer one day and compete for free the other day?
Absolutely. Just know we’ve already received interest from a number of
volunteers. We may have to cap the volunteers eventually, so if you want to do
it this way, jump on it now.
4. What is the process for registering or volunteering?
If registering, just go to www.thegaragegames.com/events/river-ruckus and
register. If volunteering, do the same. If volunteering AND competing, then
please register to do BOTH online and go ahead and make payment to compete. We
will refund your competition fee to you after the event.
5. Is there a Masters division?
Yep. Ages 40+
6. Is there a youth division?
Yes. They will do scaled down versions of the normal competition WODS. Like the
Masters question above, if we have enough to deserve youth subcategories, we’ll
build them.
7. I’d like to judge. How do I do that?
Awesome. We need judges! Minimally, we’d
ask that you complete the CrossFit online judges course at oc.crossfit.com. You can register to volunteer/judge at www.thegaragegames.com/events/river-ruckus
8. What prizes are up for grabs?
$500 cash and a trophy for the Rx winners, as well as some cool sponsor stuff.
9. When will WODS be posted?
They’re up. Go to www.wodlife.com.
10. Is this event indoor or outdoor?
Both. Right now plans are to host some events indoors at CrossFit Pisgah and
some outdoors on a green space on the French Broad River. The gym and the green
space are about 80 yards apart.
11. How do I become a sponsor or vendor?
Sponsorships are closed, but vendors can still hop on. Just email Ben at ben@crossfitpisgah.com or call 828.772.7115. We’ll get our
sponsorship packet out to you ASAP.
12. Can I change from Rx to Scaled or vice-versa?
Sure. Just email Ben at ben@crossfitpisgah.com.
