Welcome back to the 4th Annual Winter Warrior!

We are beyond excited to have everyone back for another fun day. Please read below for further information on the events and weigh ins.

Weigh Ins

• Weigh ins will be held on Saturday December 4th from 9am-12pm and 5pm-7pm AND Sunday December 5th by appointment only. Please note that morning of weigh ins should be reserved for athletes that are coming from out of town and cannot be there the day before.
• At weigh ins, please bring your USS membership (a screenshot on your phone is perfect).
• You will be receiving your competition shirt at weigh ins, it is not required to be worn at the day of the event but I do ask that you wear it for the group photo.

Parking

• Parking anywhere in the parking lot is acceptable as long as you are not parking in front of any of the business's roll up doors. Your vehicle will be subject to tow if that is the case and it is your responsibility to take care of the tow.

Spectator Fees

• No spectator fee!

Food

• We will be having food available for purchase

Bathrooms

• There are 3 bathrooms inside of the gym that will be reserved for volunteers and competitors.
• I ask that spectators use one of the port-a-potties that will be on site; competitors have time constraints and I wouldn't them missing a lift because they had to wait to use a restroom.
