Write Up:

This event had a pretty big lesson: we started off with 10 people, 8 of which went through with the lesson. It was pretty chaotic at the beginning because of the size of the lesson, and because there were a lot of people who needed to be tested because they’ve never been to Rockheads. I appreciate everyone’s patience getting going.

Michelle is an experience climber who is just moving here from the west. She says she doesn’t know that many people here, but I think she came to the right event to meet climbers, and may even have a partner for Oasis in Christina. Ralph and Frank are personal friends that took the lesson, and it went for well for them that they upgraded their packages and already made plans to come back. Pia and Lisa partnered up; they were very dedicated and even ventured into the regular routes even though they didn’t think they would at the beginning. They’ve also already made plans to come back (See you Wednesday!). My friend and former co-worker Lorenzo also loved it, he has joined the club, and he’s inquiring about equipment and is looking a climbing in Ajax which is closer to his home, because he lives out in the middle of nowhere (Oshawa). Rui and Zepure were so concentrated that we barely heard from them, they were concentrating on their climbing. Christina, Sharon, Rafal, Pierre and I went for drinks after, and most behaved themselves… for the most part. See you at the next event.
