We host the Raising the Bar meet annually in January. Any school or individual interested in competing is invited. It is a great team-building activity for football teams. Last year we had 175 lifters participate in the 7th Annual meet. Clay HS won the boys competition and Northview was runner-up. Clay also won the girls competition and South Central was runner-up. Other schools represented include: Allen East, Genoa, Marysville, Montpelier, New London, Oak Harbor, Springfield, Toledo Christian, Vermillion and Western Reserve. A few meet and club records were broken and all had a good time. Our next meet is scheduled for January 24, 2026.
