Neil — Wed, 02 May 2012 17:28:52 +0000

In 2009 CrossFit of Naperville won as Glancer Magazine’s “NAPERVILLE’s MOST LOVED GYM” for 2009.

Last couple of years, we had missed the voting. During that time Edward’s Fitness has won 2 years in a row.

I think it would be fun to see if we can take the title back this year.

Here is where you can vote: http://www.glancermagazine.com/readerschoice2012votingform.html While we are at this we might as well see if we can get Naperville Magazine’s

Best of Naperville award too.

The Chicago way….Vote early and vote often!!!!!!
