Events

Gym-to-Crag Clinics:
This will be an clinic for newer climbers to come and learn important skills regarding climbing outside. CASA wants to create a space where gym climbers can come and learn how to minimize risk when starting to venture outside. 
 These events will each be run by a CASA board member and a community mentor. If you're interested in becoming one of CASA's community mentors, please email us at climbersallianceak@gmail.com.
 There will be three clinics in this series of after-work events this summer with limited space. Signup is required. Participants must watch our curriculum video and pass the comprehension quiz at least 24 hours before the event.
 These clinics are FREE! Sign up now to reserve your space and take the first step toward becoming a self-sufficient and confident outside climber! See you there.

Hatcher Pass Trail Work:
We will be continuing last year's work on the Lane Hut Trail this year. We need volunteers to help us redirect the trail away from the swamp and improve the original trail. CASA board members are currently exploring signage options ahead of this event in order to make a more lasting impact on this trail, which currently follows an unsustainable path. 
 We expect this to be our last work day on this trail, so come out and join us to be a part of the impact! See you there! 

Ladies' Crag Day:
This event is aimed toward building connections between the women in this climbing community. Accessibility is one of CASA's main objectives for this community, and accessibility for women outside is an important part of that. CASA board member Naomi Stock will be running this event with the support of female community mentors. 
 Come hang out with us for a day of climbing free from the pressure, expectations, and frustrations that can come with a day out with the guys. We will be spending most of the day climbing at Lower Sunshine Ridge and then joining the rest of our community at the Alaska Rock Gym's 5th Anniversary Event at 5:30pm. Snacks will be provided, but be prepared for a few hours of craggin!

End of Summer Event:
Let's all get together to celebrate a summer well sent and well spent!
 In the morning we will be getting together to climb and hang out, and later in the afternoon there will be a fundraising event! Please register for the climbing portion of the day so that we know how many participants to prepare for.
 More information to come!
