We are once again removing the parameters of a traditional deadlift competition and allowing all bodies and identities an opportunity to compete together. While this is a non-sanctioned meet it does give people a chance to showcase their strength in the body and identity they present to the world.
Last year we were able to raise over $7,000 through flat donations and pledge donations per pound of participant's total weight lifted. Other ways we raised money was through sponsorship and raffle items! This year we hope to hit our main goal of $10,000 and are currently in discussion with Courage MKE to see how we can service our LGBTQIA+ community even better.
How does it work?
Each participant gets 3 lift attempts. Lifts will be determined good (2 out of 3 thumbs up) , or bad (1 or 0 thumbs up), by three judges. Each good lift will be added to a final total. Participants are not required to wear a singlet, but judges must be able to see the hips and knees clearly.
What can I win?
Each participant will receive a t-shirt and cinch bag filled with small swag items upon registration. The Grand Prize winner will be the lifter who raises the most money for our organization of choice through pledges and donations. This person receives the mega swag gift bag filled with items from local small businesses.
