Homeschool Days are half-price for climbers, with no charge for spectators! That's $16 per climber. Also, the event is from 10 AM-2 PM, but the day pass is good for the rest of the day!

New this year:
There will be First Ascent staff available to belay the climbers! This allows climbers to take breaks as they climb, have someone guiding them along the way, and build confidence as they tackle even bigger routes!
There will also be a FREE belay class (limited to 6 spots at Noon each meetup) for homeschool parents!!! This is an amazing value and a great way to ensure your children have access to even more routes!
There is a community room available for breaks and for activities for non-climbers.
There will be a barrier available in the children's area to help keep littles contained in the front area.
