We’re super excited to partner with @accessfund and @pennstatecrec along with some amazing Pennsylvania organizations in promoting a virtual showing of REELROCK 15!!! This screening will be FREE to not only PSU students, but also members of the community!
The film showings as well as live panel discussions will happen on Wednesday, March 10th from 7:00-9:30PM. JEDI(Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion), ethics, and stewardship will be the primary focus of this years discussion. It is crucial to keeping educating ourselves on how to strengthen our climbing community.💪
A donation of $10 to The Access Fund is recommended but not required.
Registration can be found in the LinkTree in our bio. See you there!
Meet Kathleen!
Kathleen is such a multifaceted and talented individual. Yoga instructor, massage therapist, wellness coach... Kat does is all! She adds a whole different dimension to the Climb Nittany team. You’ll see her a lot during the mid-day shifts here at the gym. Although new to the industry, she is learning fast and couldn’t be more psyched to continue to grow her climbing knowledge.
When, where, and how do you start climbing?
2014. I was living in Pittsburgh and was invited to the local climbing gym by my friends I made while autocrossing My Mini Cooper.
What’s your favorite style of climbing?
I’m a total gym climber because I’ve never climbed outdoors and while I love bouldering I’d have to say top roping because it helps me navigate my fear of heights. Both styles are amazing at supporting my journey with living with anxiety and depression. I totally use my climbing practice as a mental health tool.
When we assign staff Wrestlemania style theme songs, what will yours be?
Either Darude Sandstorm or We Like to Party by the Vengaboys. Maybe a mash up of both, as long as it’s weird, catchy, and it gets you dancing.
Beta Spoiler! A few routes went up today so come and get them while they’re fresh!!! Here’s a glimpse of the new blue.
In addition, be prepared for an ENTIRE gym reset in a couple of weeks! The exact date is TBD, but we will announce once decided. The clock is ticking for you to send your project!!! ⏰

Meet Lewis!
His smile is contagious, even under the mask!😷 As an experienced indoor and outdoor climber with an affinity for helping others, Lewis was an obvious welcomed addition to the Climb Nittany crew. Here’s a few things you may not have known about him -
What professional climber do you admire the most?
If you don't know Cedar Wright, the knuckle-head in chief, you should definitely check him out! Best climbing comic relief you'll ever get.
When you were 5 years old, what did you want to be when you grow up?
When I was 5 I wanted to be a Merchant Marine! I figured it would be an easy way to see the world.
What’s your proudest send so far?
In a cold late November, my brother and I went on a day sea kayaking journey to different climbing routes along the coast in Massachusetts. Our kayak started to deflate miles away and we had to stop along different shores to re-inflate the thing.(gradually sinking between each stop) We still sent a bunch of routes despite some hardcore suffering!

The Khoisan are the Natives of South Africa distinct from the other tribes. While settling in Cape Town, white colonists had their way with the Khoisan women, and the first mixed people of South Africa were born. Most of these people were killed off by disease, famine, war, and eventually bred out of existence. "The curse that colored people carry is having no clearly defined heritage to go back to...For all that black people have suffered, they know who they are. Colored people don't."
Brittain, Manager at 5.Life’s Training Center says, "There is sadness you feel when you look at your reflection and no longer know who you are. You don't recognize yourself, and all that emotional attachment to your humanity is gone. There is a huge existential burden that is placed on a human when they don't know where they come from. To live with that detachment on a daily basis takes an incredible amount of strength to overcome."
Imagine not knowing your own history, where your parents, grandparents, and ancestors came from. How would it feel to be orphaned by history? In the days of 23 and Me or Ancestry.com, this seems insane, but for some entire ethnic populations, it is simply reality.

Meet Sam!
Most of you already know her as our first local hire. She fit right in with us; a fun-loving personality, endless positive attitude, and top notch dance skills! 🙌 She has recently accepted an instructor position with Adventures Cross Country. As sad as we are to see her go, we wish her well with this awesome new opportunity!
What is your favorite style of climbing?
Sport climbing. I just love big whips and I cannot lie.
What was your proudest send?
A boulder problem called Mushroom Mantle in Hunter's Rock. I worked about three feet of this climb for several months before that sweet sweet send.
What would be your Wrestlemania theme song?
The Wii Sports theme song on a ten hour loop to intimidate my opponents.
