Greetings new gym enthusiasts!

We will be at the new gym today (they're in the same location) cleaning and getting things ready for the move tomorrow. If anyone would like to drop by to help, come on down! If not, then the "official" moving and cleaning party is tomorrow, Sunday 6/6/10 @ 9am. We'll be moving everything over to the new space and cleaning out the old one. It'll be like a WOD moving all the bumper plates! Give me a call if you're coming down... We should be there about 10:30 this morning and 9 tomorrow! Any help is greatly appreciated!!! Thanks!
