Lift for Camp Journey
— presented by MODE
One day. World-class athletes. A community lifting for kids with cancer.
On November 7, 2026, MODE Fitness in Liberty Lake becomes the center of the strength world for a day, and it's all for a cause that matters. Deadlift for Camp Journey brings together everyday lifters from our community and some of the biggest names in strength and fitness from around the United States for a single, unforgettable event.
Community members test themselves and have fun on the platform. Whether you can deadlift the bar or 700 lbs, we want you there to help us raise money for Camp Journey. World-class pro athletes will put on a show after with their max deadlifts. And every pound pulled helps send a child with cancer to camp. Everyone who lifts is encouraged to receive donation pledges that go 100% to Camp Journey.
This isn't just a lifting event. It's a room full of people, beginners and champions side by side, proving that strength means showing up for each other. Whether you come to compete, to watch, or to sponsor, you're part of something bigger than a personal record.
Come lift. Come watch. Come be part of it.

WHO WE’RE LIFTING FOR
Camp Journey NW is a camp providing a community of hope for children and their families touched by cancer. Dealing with childhood cancer can sometimes make "just being a kid" seem out of reach. At Camp Journey NW, their goal is to change that perception and reality. In this nurturing, medically supervised home-away-from home, young cancer survivors can leave their worries behind for one magical week and immerse themselves in a fun-filled outdoor camp experience tailored expressly to their needs. Meanwhile, their families and caregivers can rest easy, knowing that trained oncology staff is on-site 24/7.
