Mission Cliffs Hosts Bridgemont High
At the end of February, Mission Cliffs was lucky enough to play host to a great community group, and as you probably can guess by now, doing this is one of our favorite things. At any rate, our Mission Cliffs gym became the site of a surprise mystery event for Bridgemont High School and everyone had an amazing time.

They were kind enough to send us over a testimonial for our site, and even some student quotes from the day they spent climbing all over the walls at MC. Here's what they all had to say:

Bridgemont High School –Mystery Day @ Mission Cliffs

Rock climbing at Mission Cliffs became their surprise mystery event. The honor students were awarded with a day of adventure, but didn’t know what they were going to do.

We brought our students here both as a reward and as a challenge. A reward because these are our honor roll students from the fall semester. A challenge because city kids don’t often have the opportunity to climb up rocks, work their muscles, and overcome mental barriers. As they participated in this, they became increasingly aware that reaching the top is between them and themselves. It was neat to see these students encouraging and challenging each other. Today our kids overcame.

Student quotes:
“It was amazing to make the top. It made me feel good.” -Hamine Y.
“It’s something I haven’t done in awhile; don’t do normally. It tests me mentally and physically.” –Jose J.
“It made me face my fear of heights.” –Azar A.
“I learned to keep my arms straight and stay concentrated.” –Chia S.
“It’s a challenge between you and yourself to see if you can actually go further”. –Briana J.

Thanks again everyone involved, looks like it went great and we hope you include us in your mystery events in the future!
