The Youth Climbing Club is a program structured to provide kids the opportunity to discover and learn about the sport of rock climbing. Under the guidance of dedicated instructors, kids learn basic rock climbing skills, as well as work at improving balance, strength and coordination. The sport of rock climbing will also help your child develop self-confidence and self-esteem, while learning other life skills such as teamwork and communication.
These classes are offered January-March, April-June, August-September, and October-December.
Kiddos will meet once per week for 8 weeks. Costs $285 per 8-week session-- this includes a standard youth / young adult membership for the duration of Climbing Club as well as equipment rentals during Climbing Club only.
