In partnership with local ACMG guides, Claire Ellick and Renee Lavergne, The Crush Collective is offering a two day progression style outdoor rock climbing clinic. This event will take place on September 24th and 25th, 8am - 4pm MST. Folks must be available for both dates.
The two day clinic will take place at various locations in the surrounding areas of the Bow Valley. The routes chosen will be introductory level and no previous experience is required. We will focus on building skills for climbing outside. Thanks to the support of Onward Up, climbing equipment can also be provided if needed.
We welcome all bodies and the event will be set at a pace to fit everyone's needs. This event is open to individuals who are ages 18+.
The Crush Collective will do your best to make transportation options available for those who are not able to transport themselves.
Participants who register will be emailed a confirmation of attendance prior to the climbing date. This event has been subsidized thanks to the Arc'teryx Outer Peace Grant and fundraising from the Crush Collective.
Please note, as registration is limited, we will be prioritizing registration from individuals who hold additional intersections of identity/face marginalization that influence access to climbing. More details are in the questions below.
On September 25th we have someone coming to take a few photos and a video to sum up the day. We have included a photo consent form below with more information on what we could use the images and video for. The photos and videos are helpful for Crush to promote future events.
DEADLINE FOR REGISTRATION FORM SUBMISSION: Midnight of September 16th. Within a few days of the form closing, we will confirm attendance for all those who have applied. As there are limited spots, filling out this form does not guarantee a spot.
*Note: this event will happen rain or shine.
