South Tahoe Crossfit is putting on a Barbells for Boobs fundraiser on Oct. 24 starting at 9:30am.

The event will raise funds to provide mammograms for early detection of breast cancer, especially for people younger than 40. There will be a tribute workout to breast cancer fighters and survivors. People may join the workout or watch and support.

This year’s event is dedicated to Renee Gorevin, a teacher in Lake Tahoe Unified School District.

Donations may be made online.

    I can’t resist. When is the ‘ Numchucks for Nuts” fundraiser for men to get in and get a prostate exam?

    It is not about saving “boobs.” It is about saving a person’s life. The title is insulting to many facing breast cancer. Also, I think the main point of these types of “fundraisers” is more about making money from new customers in the long run. Crossfit appeals to the middle-aged fatties who pretend they are bad-asses because they do Crossfit. They will shell out hundreds a month to fulfill this fantasy until they get injured and have to quit.
