IN MEMORY OF PAUL CHILDRESS

This event is especially meaningful as we honor the memory of Paul Childress, who we lost on September 22, 2023, just ten months after his colon cancer diagnosis. Paul was not only an extraordinary powerlifter, holding American world records in the squat and overall powerlifting total, but also a phenomenal coach and mentor. He touched the lives of many athletes and friends with his passion, wisdom, and kindness. We remember him fondly and aim to carry forward his legacy of strength and dedication.



Giving back

A portion of the proceeds from Winter WODfest goes to The Childress Scholarship Foundation, supporting future athletes on their journey toward excellence. Your participation helps us make a positive impact in our community and honor Paul's memory in a meaningful way.
