For 6 years in a row, we raised a cumulative total of $6,875.00 to donate to GiGi's Playhouse for Down Syndrome Awareness. Ted Dreaver, owner of CrossFit Iron Legion, started a gym in his backyard and slowly built it into what it is today: a community of friends and family who have come together to not only support and inspire one another’s fitness journeys, but their lives as a whole.
His daughter Kiera was born with Down syndrome. “What initially scared him turned into a blessing because he realized there is no better community of love and support for her to grow up in.” Each year, on National Down Syndrome Day, Iron Legion holds “Down For Donuts”, a functional fitness competition, at his gym in Ocala, Florida and donates 100% of proceeds to GiGi’s Playhouse in Gainesville, Florida.
