Ready to learn how to belay and climb with a top rope? TRC has agreed to run a beginner's class for us. They will teach newbies how to safely belay a climbing partner. You will be able to pass the belay certification test afterwards, and then you're free to climb to your heart's content. TRC will charge $10 for this training - and you can pay at the door.
Hi Wendy - I'm sure the actual training part won't take more than half an hour. And you don't have to test for the belay certification that evening - you can do it another time. Hopefully that will allow you to attend.
Bummer...work gets in the way - even 30 minutes later and I could be there. As it is, I'm paying the big $$ to take the intro class that morning.
Angela - It's no problem to come a half hour later...this is going to be such a big group, we'll have to divide up a bit. Come anyway! Show off your skills from the morning!
Had fun meeting everyone, hope you all learned something and had a good time. Hope to see you guys around.
Good to meet many of you and get to climb with the organizers at the start :) If any of y'all ever need a belay, let me know. I'm there quite often.
I had a great time guy's, James and Andy thanks for the belays,tips etc. hope to see the group again soon!

Does anyone know approximately how long this event will last? I have another engagement later that evening, and I want to do both, but I don't want them to overlap. Thanks.
