Remember the Big Announcement?
The CF community is an ever-expanding one and the Las Vegas area is no different.  In an exciting effort to further develop the CF community in Las Vegas, Zach and Joe will be moving toward their own ventures.  Joe and CrossFit Las Vegas will be moving to 7540 Dean Martin Dr. #508.  Zach will remain at the current location and begin CrossFit Max Effort.

The final day of operation for CrossFit Las Vegas in its current location will be June 25th and will be re-opening on July 5th at the new facility.  Zach and CrossFit Max Effort will open in the current location on the same date.  Current rates will be honored at both locations.

In the meantime, Joe, Zach, and CrossFit Las Vegas are still in full operation and look forward to seeing everyone at the gym!  Thanks everyone for your continued support and patronage.[gradient_divider]
