Rocklin Boulders Clean-Up A Huge Success!
I mentioned it yesterday and I'll mention it again today...When something needs help, something needs doing, or something needs some serious volunteer action, it has become abundantly clear that we are a great group to turn to! I just got some great news that the Adopt-A-Crag event held back on October 11th at Rocklin Boulders was not just a success, it was a HUGE success at that.
The event, hosted by Climbing Resource Advocates for Greater Sacramento (CRAGS), saw a grand total of 44 volunteers showing up for the cleaning, and what's even more impressive, is that all total 172 volunteer hours were logged! When the end of the event finally came, an entire dumpster was filled. What is scary is that it was filled with 14 car tires, 2 shopping carts, a mattress, shelving unit, TV/VCR combo, 20' of chain link fencing and way too much steel strapping and rebar to even mention.
More than anything, we just want to throw out a massive THANK YOU to each and every one of you that participated in the Adopt-A-Crag event, and also to Goodyear Tire Co. for letting us use their dumpster and parking area for the event!
Finally, don't forget that there is a CRAGS Fundraiser this Saturday at Sacramento Pipeworks at 7PM. There will be an awesome screening of the REEL ROCK TOUR and I'm fairly sure you won't want to miss this either. Check out the new CRAGS website for a lot more info on any upcoming events, and once again, Thanks EVERYONE!

There would not even be a CRAGS or a Summit Party if not for your generosity and kindness. Thanks for making Pipeworks the best gym anywhere. We are all very proud to be part of the Touchstone family.
Gratefully yours,
Rob, the Summit Party and CRAGS
