Youth Villages’ partnership event with local Nashville gym, CrossFit Forte, broke all records this year and nearly doubled last year’s efforts, raising more than $21,000. The annual community-wide partner competition sold out, attracting 120 athletes and nearly 100 spectators with donations benefiting Youth Villages of Middle Tennessee.
Congrats to CrossPoint for winning the Civic Group Volunteer Award at this year’s Mary Catherine Strobel Awards hosted by Hands On Nashville.
