Today we got to climb with you all for the last time. It was bittersweet and beautiful and sad and all the things. We’ve seen so much growth from so many people, and it’s been an honor to get to be a part of your lives and to watch you grow as climbers.
We hope that we’ve shown you the climbing industry does have people in it that care about you. There can be safe spaces for women, for celebrating your culture and ethnicity, for feeling seen and represented and valued, to be free to openly show love to who you love. For too many climbers, representation and a feeling of safety and comfort aren’t the norm. We tried our hardest to make sure you all felt wanted here, because you were.
We hope we showed you what happy employees look like. What a setting team given creative freedom and the trust to explore their skills and individual styles looks like. We hope we showed you that you can ask for changes and your gym will listen to you. That your experience matters. Don’t be a stranger if you see us on the walls.
Thank you all for everything.
We loved it all.
