Please –
Keep the chalk in the bucket!
Wipe it off your kettlebells!
Wipe it off the pullup bar you use!
Wipe it off your barbell!
Wipe up your sweat angels!

There should not be piles of chalk or puddles of “chalk mud” all over the floor.  Help from everyone is appreciated to take good care of the gym and our equipment and respect your fellow athletes by not making them have to WOD in your mess.  There are wipes, and spray bottles by the water fountain and by the stereo.  Please use them.
