ACCOMMODATIONS:

There are plenty of hotels in the area. It is a good bet to search for hotels close to our gym, as the venue is a couple miles away. We have partnered with Motel 6 for 10% off to anyone coming to the event. Below is the link that will automatically give you the discount and populate a search of the Motel 6's in our proximity. 

ACO NEEDS:
Please bring all clothing, footwear, warmup needs and personal food/drink. there will be an athlete area for you to stow your belongings in. you do not need to bring any piece of specific equipment for ACO.
ACO INFORMATION UPDATES: 
Please follow closely to our ACO section of our website, www.dallascrossfit.com/acoupdates.html, and on our Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/events/144237572341998/, and twitter:http://twitter.com/#!/AllCitiesOpen
DO NOT email us about what the workouts are, we will announce them at the competition. However, in the next couple weeks, we will be releasing information about the workouts. Check the links above often so you don't show up to the event wondering what is going on. Also, we will go over standards at the event. We feel it is the athlete's responsibility, at this point, to know what the standards of common CrossFit movements are. 
ACO EVENT DETAILS:
There will be 4 scheduled events + 1 "floater" event. It is the athlete's responsibility to make sure to complete the floater WOD before the final event starts. We will be giving more information in the next couple weeks. 

 

Please also read the attached ACO TESTER GUIDELINES AND INFORMATION sheet. This document contains important details about what will be tested at ACO. You will want to read through it carefully.
