Merry Christmas From Touchstone Climbing!

Today, we here at Touchstone Climbing just wanted to take a quick minute to wish ALL of you a very, very Merry & Happy Christmas!
I do not know how you celebrate these Holiday Seasons, and it does not matter; however you choose to spend Christmas, and this entire Holiday Season, enjoy it to the fullest, spend it with your friends, family and loved ones, and have a great time.
In short, from all of us at Touchstone Climbing, to all of you:
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS! Labels: Christmas, Christmas and holiday season, Holidays
New Holiday Edition of Spinner Blast Out
One of the things I've always loved the
most about
Touchstone Climbing might surprise you. Yes, we have amazing gyms packed with amazing walls, programs, classes and equipment, but that's not the thing I Love most. What I Love most, is simple: the communities that are developed. The communities are everything and
Touchstone Climbing does an amazing job of bringing people together, and giving them great reasons to stay together.
One of the coolest things that goes on inside these aforementioned communities is the
SpinnerBlast Newsletter that goes out. It's such an amazing way to not only stay up with all of the different members that are part of the clubs, but stay up with all of the events, future and past, that go on. Basically it's a one-stop-shop, and I love it. Check out this little snippet from this month's special holiday edition:
Hi everyone and Happy Holidays,
2008 has been a great year working with all the Touchstone endurance athletes. We tested nearly 60 people this year, with several of you returning for a second or third time to track your training progress. That progress, which we've seen and measured, has been inspiring: from coveted weight loss goals to personal bests in a variety of events. Oftentimes, we got to see both. What stands out most in my mind has been an increase in health and fitness from all of you who have made the commitment to improve, no matter where you started. It's been a pleasure to be part of it and I look forward to seeing both new and familiar faces in 2009.
On that note, have a safe holiday season and come see us next year as we identify and set new and greater goals for 2009.
If I've said it once, I've said it one hundred times: Subscribe to this, get involved and start making your membership at
Touchstone Climbing worth so much more than it already is. Join these communities!
P.S. A Quick reminder that tonight is the rescheduled Evolv Shoe Demo at Great Western Power Co. If you're in the area, from 6-8 PM everyone is invited to come in and try out some awesome Evolv shoes! Remember, any shoe purchases during the Demo will be 15% off! That includes Special Orders as well as the shoes in stock. Don't miss it! Labels: Christmas, community, Holiday Edition, SpinnerBlast, Touchstone Climbing
