Apologies for the delay in scheduling another event. The road called me away. While I was away, I had some time to practice with the GRIGRI. A belay device. I was successful in denying gravity a human submission.

That being said, I am confident we can use the auto-belay and traditional rope. With both going, we can get more climbers up. I am also looking at scheduling an ice climbing Meetup for the winter. Let me know if you have an interest. If we can get a few people to go, it would be worth giving it a shot. I will also look for other outdoor venues after winter.

Going forward, we will probably stretch out and try other climbing gyms. We can discuss that further in person. Prices will vary, but it would be fun. I also want to start a little donation fund to help subsidize climbers who may not have the funds to join. I'll kick it off with 50 bucks.

Anywho, this Meetup is like the others. 6-8 PM (or a little longer if need be) climbing, $20 to climb with belt and chalk provided. Sign the waiver if it's your first time, but for those who have signed, the waiver is good for a year. Check in at the front desk before making your way over to the wall. I am going to duplicate this Meetup for Friday as well. Bring sneakers to climb in or any other shoe that doesn't have a conspicuous profile. Think smooth and grippy, friction.
