Saturday 6-12-21 Starke HomeFit
In todays workout we are honouring 215 children who were taken from their parents, their families and their homes. Some to return with horrible lifelong memories and some who never returned. This is something that has been on my mind since first hearing about it weeks ago and I still can’t believe how unbelievable it is and how it could have happened. I had never learned about this in elementary, high school or university. The thought of having local authorities come and tear children from their families is unthinkable. I’ve though every day since how I would feel and would live the rest of my life if my daughter was taken from me and the thoughts are soul crushing.
Keep the children of Kamloops Residential School and their families in your thoughts while you tackle this workout and thank you @kipperforty9 for writing this tribute WOD
Repost from @crossfitcanada
This WOD was created by @kipperforty9 from the Mi’kmaq First Nation.
This WOD is a way to honour & show respect to the 215 innocent children found buried in an unmarked burial site at the Kamloops Residential School in BC.
The Last Canadian Residential School closed it’s doors in 1996
Orange is the color we use to honour all victims/survivors of Residential schools.
The CrossFit community will be doing this WOD tomorrow and will be wearing Orange.
