BC has put mask measures back into place leading i

BC has put mask measures back into place leading into the fall. Per BC provincial mandate, masks are now required for “people 12 and older ... regardless of vaccination status” in “common areas of sport and fitness centres when not engaged in physical activity”. We have disposable masks at the gym for $1 or you can always bring your own. Please do your best to respect these guidelines during all hours. Our highest priority as a co-op is to remain a resource for our community and with this in mind we will be monitoring and following provincial requirements and guidelines as closely as we can.

The province has also said that starting September 13th it will require proof of vaccination for certain events and facilities (second dose required starting October 24th). This will include the co-op. Based on what we know from the province, we will be required to confirm the vaccination status of members to retain fob access as well as all those climbing during drop-in hours. This will apply to those 12 and older and will therefore also affect some of the team participants. We know that this may be a challenge for some and we hope that if there are some that won’t be joining us in September we can welcome you all again soon. The co-op family is a strong one and we will always do our best to support you all in every way possible.

Sincerely,
The Powell River Climbing Co-op

Teams are back starting in September! We’ve got

Teams are back starting in September! We’ve got three options for young folks whether they’re looking to keep climbing with some structure or try climbing for the first time. Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have questions or want to register for one of the teams! If cost is a boundary get in touch to discuss options as well.

Our Junior Team will be focused on younger kids who are newer to climbing. Fun will be the primary goal with plenty of learning sprinkled in!

Our Senior Team will train with the Competitive Team once a week and is for kids wanting to take climbing a little more seriously but who aren’t interested in competing or ready to take it to twice a week.

The Competitive Team will focus on training and improving climbing techniques and strength in a regimented way. For youth committed to climbing this will provide a way to combine the fun of climbing with tangible progress and goals.

We look forward to seeing many returning faces and some new ones too!

Here at the PRCC, we are taking this day, Canada D

Here at the PRCC, we are taking this day, Canada Day, to reflect on the current unfolding exposure of our country’s sad and terrible history with its Indigenous people. We encourage anyone reading this to wear orange today along with us. Our co-op humbly sits on the ceded territory of the Tla’amin Nation and we want to take appropriate steps to form solid relationships with all Indigenous people.

Happy Easter Everyone! We'll be closed to drop-i

Happy Easter Everyone!

We'll be closed to drop-ins on Good Friday, but open Saturday and Sunday at our normal times.

Please be sure if you are planning on using the co-op at this time to only do so with your family unit, and be sure to book a time using our online booking system which can be found on the front page of our website, so that we can continue to operate safely this spring!

Hey Everyone! A few months ago, Jonathan- a board

Hey Everyone! A few months ago, Jonathan- a board of director at the PRCC, thought it would be cool to post a sign that shows how many members we need to cover our fixed costs. We added all of our fixed costs together, calculated the average price that a member pays, and put this graphic together.

Having this information public aligns with our values as a not-for-profit Co-op. It transparently conveys to what extent membership is supporting the facility. With this knowledge, we can work together to meet our goals ✨. This graphic displays how all members contribute to the viability of our Co-op.

At the end end the day we want to provide you with the best facility possible. With more members, we can order more holds! We can also think of expanding into a larger facility one day.

A big thank you 🙏 to all of members who make this gym possible!

Erica is finding her zen, hours deep into grant applications for the climbing gym 💻📝. Erica has been a board of director since November 2020. She has also been an employee for the gym since it opened two years ago. She loves big trees 🌲, mossy rock, top rope laps, and the gym’s community. Thank you for all of your hard work Erica 🥰
