Any local gyms doing anything special for the 2023 Murph Challenge?

The annual Murph Challenge workout has become a tradition at many crossfit boxes and gyms each year on Memorial Day to honor those who have and currently serve our country. Does anyone know of any local gyms hosting anything this year for the workout?
"The Murph Challenge is not just a physical test, but also a mental and emotional one. Participants are pushed to their limits and are encouraged to keep pushing through the pain and exhaustion, just as Lieutenant Murphy did during his final moments. The event is held annually on Memorial Day, and people from all over the world come together to honor Lieutenant Murphy and all those who have given their lives in service to our country. The Murph Challenge is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by our military and a testament to the strength and resilience of the human spirit."
The workout:
Would recommend watching the movie Lone Survivor if you don't already know the story of Michael Murphy.

If you’re in the BR area Cajun CrossFit on airline always does a big throw down for it

How much do you think they would charge me to use their facility for the day?

Where’s local? Drop into any CrossFit box. I’ve never seen one charge to participate in Murph but I’m sure there are some knuckleheads out there. I do Murph but not really Murph. I’m not wearing a vest and I’m doing 20 rounds of Cindy. I don’t like wrecking my body for a week.

Did it this morning. 10-20-30 rep scheme. Push ups got me like they do every year

Used a regimented rep scheme last year, went by feel this time. Regimented was better for time.
The pull ups were what got me. I finished push-ups early hoping it would help with fatigue for the rest, but this did not happen

Legs were out after those 300 squats. Second mile was hell.

I didn’t do Cindy. I went straight through but didn’t wear a vest. I did it in 46 minutes.
