Thank You - Monday, April 7th, 2025

Thank You

Saturday morning at CrossFit Indestri, we witnessed the true power of what community is.

Together, we came together as one big family to support and uplift the Northcott family. What started as a simple act of kindness turned into something truly extraordinary, raising over $10,000.

It’s moments like these that remind us what it means to be part of a community.  It’s not just about the WODs or the personal records; it’s about showing up for each other, lifting one another up, and making a difference when it counts the most.  Saturday, every rep, every cheer, and every donation was a reflection of the love and strength we share.

A massive thank you to each and every person who contributed, whether it was through participating, donating, or simply offering words of support. Your generosity and compassion are what make this community so special. Together, we’re more than just a gym; we are a family, and when we come together, we can do amazing things.

Thank you to CrossFit Firepower in Milton and CrossFit Cobe in Kingston for also coming on board to do the workouts in your affiliates.  As well as Christina for leading a group of Fire recruits in Clearview through the workout on Saturday morning at the station.

Thank you just doesn’t seem like enough, but we want to send some special thanks to Season and her team at Culinary Designs for providing an amazing breakfast spread, and to Emma and Hannah for making so many beautiful bracelets last week, to Emma Nichol Photography for capturing it all for us..  As well as to every single person and company that donated to the silent auction your outpouring of support and generosity was absolutely incredible.  Thank you to Daniel for helping us design such a beautiful shirt, and to Printeez, Shawn and his incredible team for getting the shirts to us so quickly.

Witnessing the power of this community Saturday morning, and having Ella, Clark, Gina and Quinn able to be a part of it, was nothing short of extraordinary.  

We thank each of you for being a part of Ella’s Army.

Clark, Gina, Quinn and Ella, have also asked us to share the following with you:

We brought Ella home from the hospital 10 days ago. We have no doubt we made the right decision to have Ella in the comfort of her own home.

These last few weeks have been an emotional roller coaster. She has good days and not so good days. She is a fighter and a true warrior with a smile who lights up a room.

One thing that helps give us strength is this village of people supporting and surrounding us.

Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts

A special Thank you to CrossFit Indestri, Jen and Steph, for organizing #ellasarmy. What an amazing morning!! We are so happy we could bring Ella to see how much she is loved and supported.

Thank you to our family & friends (near and far), neighbours and CrossFit FirePower and CrossFit Cobe for joining #ellasarmy

Thank you Culinary Designs for the incredible food you supplied and to everyone who kindly donated silent auction items.

And to Daniel for designing the amazing #ellasarmy tshirts.

And Emma Nichol Photography for capturing the day.

Over $10,000 was raised. We will be making a donation to ALS Canada. Specifically to help fund future research projects with the newly discovered gene mutation linked to the incredibly rare jeuvenile ALS that Ella has. We can only hope that we can help fight this awful disease. It is our goal as a family to help in any way we can.

Thank you!!

Gina, Clark, Ella and Quinn xo
