About this event

Description

Youth are now exploring adventure pursuits that allow them to push themselves, set goals, and build strength and character. Campers will build confidence, learn teamwork, and understand safety skills while bouldering and top rope climbing at our climbing wall. They will learn climbing techniques, knot tying, warm-up routines, and injury prevention. Our campers ages 12-14, will also learn how to belay other climbers using a GriGri. Trained staff will supervise the program and all climbing equipment is provided for all climbers.

Our climbing wall has a mixture of top rope climbing routes and bouldering routes for the campers to climb and strengthen their climbing abilities. . The skills learned on the rock wall will transfer into their daily lives. Climbers will climb divide into smaller groups for rock climbing portions of the day to ensure maximum time climbing.

Each camper will progress at a different pace throughout the week and will be grouped with those of the same ability. Throughout each day, campers will also participate in climbing preparation exercises, camp activities and outdoor group initiatives that support teamwork.

Rock Climbing Camp will have recreational swimming for campers three times a week.
