Gear Maintenance Mini-Clinic & NY3C Community Climb Night

Do your shoes or harness smell? Does your rope blacken your hands? Even veteran climbers have stinky shoes. We'll talk about how to freshen them up as well as clean and care for safety equipment like ropes and harnesses without weakening them. Join us for this lively and informative discussion and then stay to climb! Volunteers from NY3C will happily help out new climbers at the event.

What are Mini-Clinics?: The outdoors should be for everyone, but not everyone has access to the knowledge and education around it. NY3C is hosting mini-clinics to help bridge the gap to make the outdoors more accessible.

Cost: Mini-Clinics are FREE to attend, BUT if you'd like to stay and climb, discounted day passes and gear (shoes and harness) are available for $15. If cost is a barrier for participation, please email [email protected], and we are happy to assist.

Arrival: We ask that you please arrive to Movement 5-10 minutes before 6:45pm as we will gather at the Moon board on the 2nd floor promptly at 6:45. Agenda in section below.

When you arrive, please let the front desk staff know that you are here for the NY3C Mini-Clinic and they will guide you towards the second floor bouldering area.

Info: Please check in with the front desk as you arrive. Once checked in, you're welcome to climb (if climbing) until 6:45 pm or you may head to the second balcony bouldering area to meet us for the mini clinic.

Info: The mini clinic is designed to be between 15-30 minutes long, but there is always room for questions if you have them!

Info: Stick around to climb after the event! Maybe you'll meet you new best belay partner!
