Row2 Hold Fast 2025 Annual Fundraising Event

Veterans Day Weekend • November 8, 2025
Skylands Stadium – Augusta, NJ

Row with Purpose. Empower Veterans.

DT's Row2 Hold Fast 2025 Fundraising event is back for its fourth year, uniting communities to raise awareness and funds for the Big Fish Foundation. Together, we’re making a tangible impact in the lives of Veterans.

The Mission

Every $1,500 raised sends one Veteran to a transformative Big Fish Foundation event. These retreats provide connection, resilience, and healing — an experience many call life-changing.

• In 2024, the Row2 Hold Fast community funded 18 Veterans to attend a Big Fish event.

• In 2025, we’re setting our sights even higher: to fund 30 Veterans and help them to bridge the gap between military service and civilian life.

This is a bold goal — but one that can be accomplished as a community.

How to Support

CrossFit Skylands is pushing hard towards the $7,500+ goal to be able to earn a custom Big Fish Concept 2 rower for our gym thanks to Concept2 and Jason Welch of Ergcentric.

Every dollar brings us closer to this goal, but more importantly, it helps us support Dave "DT" Thomas, one of our own members who proudly hosts this event every year.

This cause means a lot to us because it's about backing the people who make our community stronger.

Let's come together, hit that goal, and show Dave just how much his CrossFit Skylands family supports him and the Big Fish Foundation!

Donate: Individuals, groups, or organizations can contribute tax-deductible gifts at levels of $50, $100, $250, $500, $1,000, $1,500, or a custom amount.
