Camps Offered

Gorillas (ages 8-18 - Beginner)
This camp goes from Monday to Friday during any of the weeks mentioned above. The camp will run from 10am-2pm, and will give your teenager the opportunity to climb, exercise, become familiar with climbing equipment, and socialize with other campers.  In addition, your camper will learn the basic knots required for climbing in a gym, and learn how to belay other climbers in a safe indoor environment.  At the end of this week, each Gorilla will have earned their belay certification for top-rope climbing.  In addition, each climber will learn basic climbing technique, and take part in climbing and other fitness games.  Your child will be pushed to climb harder routes, and take on new challenges.  The staff will work with your child one-on-one, and help them to set climbing goals.  Gorillas may arrive before, or stay after camp hours to climb or socialize

Spider Monkeys (ages 8-18- Advanced)
This camp goes from Monday to Friday during any of the weeks mentioned above.  This camp will run from 10am-2pm. This camp is designed for teenagers who already know how to climb and belay.  This program will help each participant to take their climbing to the next level.  Children should be able to climb 5.8 or harder quite easily, and be willing to learn the basics of indoor lead climbing/belaying.  Participants will learn more advanced climbing techniques, and have greater opportunity to climb on the most advanced terrain at CRG.  Staff will spend quality time with your son or daughter to help them expand their climbing expectations through movement training, endurance sessions, and power work.  Children who participate in Gorillas may qualify for Spider Monkeys after one or several sessions, depending on their experience and skill level.  Please ask the staff for more information.  Spider Monkeys may arrive before, or stay after camp hours to practice skills, or climb.
