In response to the rapidly changing COVID-19 situation and the recommendations from the state of Michigan, we have decided to suspend Raising Hope 2020. Our top priority is to provide the safest environment possible for all participants and spectators and we are not able to ensure the appropriate social distancing being recommended by the expert authorities that will help slow the spread of coronavirus. We will work with all parties involved to find another date in the future to host our inaugural Raising Hope powerlifting and Olympic lifting meet benefitting HopeKids. Thank you so much for the support that you have already given this event and to HopeKids with your fundraising efforts. We will keep you informed as we make progress towards rescheduling. We appreciate your understanding and patience during this challenging time that we are all facing.
