Join our climbing club after school at Shaker Rocks. All climbers welcome from very beginners to serious climbers. No matter where they are on their climbing journey, Climbing Club will help them build a good foundation. In addition to climbing skills, Climbing Club members will make new friends, learn new communication skills, and express their personalities in a whole new way. Climbing focuses on both physical and mental strength and agility. Your child will not only get stronger and more athletic, they will also become more confident! And, of course, Climbing Club is designed to be FUN! Without focusing on competition, climbers are free to develop their skills in a stress-free, supportive environment. Students will board the bus after school and be dropped off at Shaker Rocks at 3:00pm. Parents must pick their kids up from Shaker Rocks at 4:30pm. OCER will provide transportation and supervision for climbing club, however separate registration is required with Shaker Rocks for $149 for climbing.
