The Outdoor Pursuits program leads exciting clinics every year that highlight some of the greatest outdoor attractions and activities. Check out our list of clinics below and get ready to sign-up for your next adventure!
Intro to Climbing Clinic
Classes available upon request.
Members: $5; Non-Members: $15
If you are new to climbing and do not know where to begin this is the class for you! Here we will teach you the ins and outs of the climbing world including skills like reading routes, how to fall, climbing commands, and the inherent risk of climbing. After this one-day class you will have enough knowledge to walk into any climbing gym and be able to navigate it.
Top Rope Belay Clinic
Classes available upon request.
Members: $5; Non-members: $15
Do you want to take your climbing to the next level? This one-day class will teach you how to safely belay someone on a top rope route. Students will learn how to use different belay devices, how to safely prevent a climber from falling, and how to effectively lower someone to the ground. Once you come back for your practice sessions, you will receive an endorsement to be able to top rope belay patrons within our facility without the assistance of a staff member.
