Itinerary:

This event is an introduction into indoor rock climbing.  It is designed for people interested in trying climbing for the first time or you have only climbed a few times in the past.

You don't need any experience or equipment.

We'll start with intro in safety, tying on the rope and climbing technique.  Then we'll just climb.  I'll do all the belaying and the participants will take turns climbing the routes.  I'll provide some basic pointers and suggestions to help you climb. We'll do as many routes as we can during the event time.

We'll stay together as a group during the event time.  After the event is complete, feel free to stay and do more climbing on your own.  There are always other people from the AOC at Stone Summit.

You have to complete a Stone Summit waiver before you can climb.  You can go on line at Stone Summit and complete the waiver or fill it in at the gym. 

Please arrive at the gym on time 6:30pm or before to get the paper work done and equipment on.  We'll start the actual event at 7:00pm sharp.

After you arrive at Stone Summit, pay at the front desk first. Tell them you are there for the AOC event to get the discounted price. Get the equipment if you do not already have your own and walk to the left side of the gym. That is where you'll find me. 


Required Items to Bring:

- Wear clothes that allow you to move freely, it is a good idea to wear pants that cover your knees and protect them from scrapes. 
- I would not recommend jeans

Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.

If you plan to wear rental shoes, consider wearing thin socks or liners.  It better to not wear socks, but lots of people have worn the rental shoes before you.
