Announcing 2026 Konti’shátste’ Strong Women competition, in honour of Women’s Health Month! We have collaborated with CrossFit Cornwall, with support from Indigenous Sport & Wellness Ontario and the OMC - Onkwehonwe Midwives Collective to bring you this fun, challenging, community building event, just for women! On Saturday, May 30th, we’ll gather at the A’nowara’ko:wa arena, on Cornwall Island, to compete in 5 different challenges that test strength, endurance and toughness! More than competing, we want everyone to have fun! Each challenge will earn you points for a combined mark. In addition to gathering points from the challenge, you’ll have a chance to earn more points from spectators! Each spectator will have a ballot that they can award to their favourite competitor after they compete! So bring your friends and family!!! There will be 5 divisions, including a youth category (age 12-15), three adult categories based on weight (age 16-59), and an Elder category for women aged 60+!!! We will have first, second and third place prizes in each division, as well as a door prize for one of the lucky spectators! At the event, we’ll have an indoor, family centred rest station in the turtle room, 3TK will be a vendor on site with drinks, and Rustic Saunas and Sweats will be on site to offer sauna recovery sessions! The event kicks off at 10am on May 30th, with sign-in taking place 30 minutes before each heat. Early bird registration is $10.00 from now until May 11th. Ticket prices go up on the 12th to $20.00 and registration closes on May 20th to allow us to organize the heats. May 15th, we’ll release videos of each of the strength challenges, to those signed up. Videos will include how points will be awarded and any possible penalties. If you wonder whether you can do this event or not, you probably can! So come out and join us.
