About the event

Rhonda’s Team was started in April of 2014 as a way to honor Rhonda VanBeek, the mother of Justin VanBeek, owner and head coach of CrossFit Hydro gym. Rhonda was battling stage 4 colon cancer and gym members, friends and family wanted to do something to show their support and love–to show Rhonda that she had a team of people behind her. Sadly, Rhonda lost her battle on May 19, 2014, just a few weeks after the Rhonda’s Team event.

To date, this event has now raised over $94,000! Join us on Sunday, May 19 at Crossfit Hydro for a day of fundraising and burpee challenges.

You and a partner will perform 224 burpees however you like and sweat for the cause. There will be Men's, Women's, and Mixed divisions to enter into.

We've continued to raise funds to honor Rhonda’s memory, lift up all those who are fighting colon cancer, and to continue to raise awareness of colon cancer.
