Ubergrippen Thursday Nights!

Calling all East Denverites and Aurora town folk!

A new climbing Crag (they don't want to call it a gym...lol) has arrived in Denver, or more specifically, Stapleton. The gym officially opens on July 1st!

So for those switching from Movement or Rock'n'Jam to Ubergrippen as well as those that didn't bother having a membership until now...Let's get together, make new and old friends and meet up Wednesday Evenings to climb.

Timing and after social:

I've selected 6:30pm as the time (I can do earlier if interest), in preparation for finishing early enough to get food/drinks. Also, for those inclined, as Ubergrippen is big on community, they in fact encourage people to BYOB, and hang out in their outdoor area sipping brews (rumor has it they will actually serve beer next year)

Logistics:

For those unfamiliar with climbing meetups, the way it works is that climbers (first timers and veterans) meet in the gym's open area. We hang out for about 15 minutes and then pair or triple off to climb or boulder. If you don't know how to belay, you'll climb in a group of three, so no worries. If you want to lead climb, you'll pair or triple up with an attendee certified by Ubergrippen (me for example).

If you haven't been to the gym before, get there early enough to take care of sign-up and belay tests. They want to give you an orientation tour first (30min) so I'd say come the day before or at 5:45 to time it right. You can also save time by filling out the waiver online https://ugclimbing.com/home/the_crag/first-visit/

Also of note, the soft opening for those with prepaid memberships has already begun. Post in the comments section below if you'd like have have a soft-opening meet-up the week before.
