Need your help getting some "ICE"...

I.C.E.

Interactive
Customer
Evaluation

The link below is the best way to get changes implemented to facilities or services on Yongsan Garrison (specifically Collier Field House).  Every week you should add a few comments like "there isn't enough room to do CrossFit", "we need more pull up bars", or "there needs to be dedicated childcare in the evenings...", etc...

Other ideas:
There isn't a good platform for proper weightlifting (Olympic lifts: i.e snatch or clean & jerk)...
There aren't any rubber bumper plates for proper powerlifting (deadlift, squat, press)...
There aren't enough squat racks for safe powerlifting...
There aren't any women's (35-lb) or training (15-lb) barbells for beginners...
There aren't enough pull up bars for large groups...
There needs to be a climbing rope to develop upper body strength...
There isn't any space to hang gymnastic rings from the ceiling...
There are too many stupid Hammer Strength machines in the way...
Patrons should be able to sign out dumbbells or kettlebells for use in other rooms in the gym...
They need more CrossFit equipment at Collier (rowers, barbells, bumpers, pull up bars, etc...)...
They need more CrossFit trainers at Collier...
They need more CrossFit classes at Collier...

Thanks for the help with the WEEKLY "ICE"...
