Barbell Legends Bench Fest will take place at Riverside Park. It is a sanctioned WPC (World Powerlifting Congress) bench press only powerlifting event: participants can aim to set official bench press records, or simply aim to officially set their personal records. Hilda Siegel, powerlifting record holder and trainer at Anytime Fitness Kemptville, and Curd Hos of Iron Hos Gear are organizing the event. For a small girl to be able to lift tons, t’s empowering.”If Barbell Legends Bench Fest is a success, Hilda hopes it will become an annual event. As a sanctioned event, Barbell Legends Bench Fest will draw traffic to Kemptville as well as build camaraderie within the community.
