Starting Sunday, all week, Tyler and Amy will be out of the country for vacation. We will try to ensure that we have as many classes as possible! All our coaches also work full time so it's very gracious on their part that they fill in the spaces I cannot. There will be some classes we cannot do (7am) all week so please check the calendar!If you have any membership questions or issues, please email INFO@BadgerCrossFit.com and not tyler directly. No Facebook messages either. All email will be answered as best and quickly as possible by me, Sara Lessmann!

So be sure to RSVP if you are planning on stopping in.If you leave a pool of sweat, there is a mop and bucket. Use it. It's not only for coaches.Final note, when you touch it, you must clean it. If you use it, put it away (cups, tape, boxes, rings, etc). The more that the coaches have to clean up, the more it takes away from coaching.Summer = heat = humidity = sweat = more to clean. Please keep YOUR gym the cleanest gym around.[/learn_more]
