With regret, the club will be stepping back significantly for the 2022-2023 school year.  There are several reasons for this.  One of the most significant challenges is money: our use of local climbing gyms became a lot more expensive last year, and we operated at a loss.  This is not sustainable.  Therefore:

• Until further notice, the club will not accept applications for new members.
• We might still take occasional outdoor trips.  If we do, information will be posted here and on Schoology.  There will be no membership requirement to attend this trip: all students will be invited.
