We have some EPIC summer events planned for the Aevitas Fitness community, and we want to make sure you don’t miss any of them! So get your calendars and your sharpies and block off the following dates!
Memorial Day Murph – Monday, May 30th
- Time: 8:00AM & 9:30AM
- Location: BOTH Aevitas Fitness locations
- Cost: $20 drop-in fee for non-members; shirt pre- or post-order; open day-of donations
- Charitable Cause: All proceeds (including drop-in fees and any other day of donations) will go to the Wounded Warrior Project
All The Deets:
The annual even that all CrossFit athletes know and love – Memorial Day Murph is just around the corner! Both Aevitas Fitness locations will be running Murph on Memorial Day. The plan is to run our schedule almost like a typical Saturday, with two classes beginning at 8:00 and 9:30 AM. Come to the time that works best for you!
This event is open to all CrossFit and ViTaFIT members! There are plenty of ways to scale the workout to fit your experience level, so come and complete the version that works for you!
Traditionally, this is also a day when some athletes like to bring friends from other gyms, etc. If this is you and you’re considering bringing someone, please email us ASAP so we can get a waiver done ahead of time! There will be a $20 drop-in fee, that will go directly to the Wounded Warrior Project.
If you missed the Murph T-shirt/Tank pre-order, don’t worry! We’ll have an order form on the day of the event so you can get yours! Trust us when we say that once you see these shirts, you’re going to need one!
Pride WOD – Saturday, June 11th
- Time: 9:15AM*
- Location: Aevitas Fitness Guilderland* (1 Charles Blvd. Guilderland NY)
- Cost: FREE workout! To support Pride Month
All The Deets:
Aevitas is teaming up with the Albany Knicks Women’s Rugby Club to host a Pride WOD in June!
The official event, which will include a free workout and snacks/shenanigans to follow, will be hosted at our Guilderland location, beginning at 9:15AM. However, we will be completing the same Pride workout at all classes at both locations on Saturday, June 11th. So if you can’t make it down to Guilderland, or can’t make the 9:15AM time slot work, you can still show your support!
Non-members are welcome to attend the 9:15AM class in Guilderland for no drop-in fee as part of the official event with the Knicks. Anyone dropping in must complete an online waiver – so please make plans to show up early, or email us to get a waiver signed in advance!
Summer Party at the Southwick’s Farm – Saturday, June 18th
- Time: 2:00 PM until whenever (camp out overnight if you want!)
- Location: Chad & Karen’s house, aka Bluebird Hill Farm – 70 Old New Salem Rd, Voorheesville, NY

All The Deets:
Help us welcome summer the best way we know how – with an epic outdoor party at the farm! We will have food & beverages, music, lawn games, and a fire pit (for s’mores, duh! It’s SUMMER!)
We have a pond for those looking to catch-and-release some fish, chase frogs and turtles, or take a dip to beat the heat. And of course you can pay a visit to the farm animals: our resident barn cats, a bunch of chickens, and (coming soon…) a few pigs! Pets are welcome as long as they are human- and animal-friendly, and can be supervised and/or leashed.
Come by for the afternoon and stay as long as you’d like – you can even camp out overnight if you wish! If you’re anything like us, once you step foot on the farm you’ll never want to leave. And Karen makes a pretty mean brunch spread… just sayin’!
We have an RSVP form out now. If you’re planning to come please RSVP HERE so we can get a handle on food & beverage needs!

We hosted this event for the first time last year at Tawasentha, and it went so well we’re doing it again! We will be making some slight changes this time around due to lessons learned in 2021, but if you attended last year’s event, you should expect something similar!
