Climbing camps provide youth with a unique opportunity to build confidence, strength, and problem-solving skills in a fun and supportive environment. Our camps—offered during winter, school breaks, and summer—focus on teaching valuable climbing techniques, encouraging teamwork, and fostering a love for adventure.
With experienced instructors and engaging activities, participants develop both physically and mentally while making lasting friendships. Whether they are new to climbing or looking to enhance their skills, our camps offer an exciting way for youth to stay active and challenged all year round.

Our Community Makes a Difference 💙🧗♂️
As we share this Giving Tuesday message from @accessfund , we want to highlight what you—our community—have already done.
Through our $1 for Access initiative, climbers at our gyms have contributed $7,694 in 2025 alone, and since starting the program in 2014, together we’ve donated over $142,000 to protect climbing access across the country.
Thank you for helping keep the places we love to climb open and cared for. Let’s continue that impact this Giving Tuesday.
