Booking Requirements
Updated Minimum Age Requirement: All children must be at least 5 years of age by their last birthday in order to climb. Younger children may enter the building and spectate but must be under continuous supervision by an accompanying adult.
Minimum reservation size is for 10 climbers. All climbers must have passed their 5th birthday to participate.
Reservations must be made at least three weeks in advance to allow for event staffing.
Minimum weight for participating climbers is 45 lbs. while maximum safe weight is 300 lbs.
All guests, climbing or not - including outside vendors such as party caterers, decorators, or entertainment (e.g. magicians or clowns) - must have a facility waiver on file for prolonged time within the facility.
Youth climbers should wear closed-toed athletic shoes. Crocs, sandals, or five-finger toe shoes are not appropriate. Climbers aged 14 and older, as well as any youth climbers without appropriate footwear, will be required to wear rental shoes.

Pricing
$250 for up to 10 youth climbers, includes harnesses. $25 each additional youth climber.
Youth climbers without appropriate footwear (see Booking Requirements above) or any climbers aged 14 or older must rent shoes at $9.50 per pair.
Larger group? $500 for up to 25 youth climbers, $20 each additional youth climber.
Considerations
Having your attendees (or their parents) complete their waivers AND arrive early will save as climbing time begins counting down at the start of your reservation time to respect the time of the certified volunteer belay guides who will be coming to assist in your party.
Children’s Birthday Parties: As the organizer, you may have parents (or siblings of your child(ren)'s friends who also wish to climb but it is up to you to decide whether you will cover those parents’/siblings fees or if you want to let them know in advance that they can pay for themselves.
Regarding the Deposit: Your $85 reservation department will go toward the total cost of the reservation, though may be forfeit if our Events Room is left a mess following the party or due to damage to the facility or equipment due to irregular behavior or other unauthorized activity.
Food and Beverages
Food and beverage are not included in the reservation, though drink and snack concessions are available for purchase at our Front Desk, ranging in price from $1.50 and $3.50.
Parties are welcome to bring their own food and drink for their guests. Alcohol and controlled substances are strictly prohibited.
Alternatively, many parties opt to call out for delivery - pizza from All-Star Pizza is most common! (The gym receives no kick-backs for recommending you, but they're great and know where we are if you simply say your party is at "the rock climbing gym".)
The Events Room (Use is Optional)
If you prefer a very decorative celebration we recommend securing the 9am timeslot to allow you to come in the night before to decorate the room, and otherwise to visit the gym in advance of your reservation to see the space (waivers would be required of everyone who's visiting the facility before we could show you around).
Complete Your Facility Waiver Ahead of Your VisitIf you book the 1pm timeslot, if there is a 9am party booked prior to yours, they will clear the room by 11:45am, and staff will need 15-30 minutes to get to clean the room (depending on how busy it is at our Front Desk), which means it would be safe to say you'll be able to enter the events room at 12:15pm-12:30pm to set up, although you'd be welcome to bring your food, drinks, and decorations upstairs from noon on.
