wayne Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 Wow, This should be a great show! Go Steve and Go Club. I hope to do a show later in the year for the Team. After seeing them in action, it's easy to support them. A community should do that after all.

Denijoe Posted June 2, 2009 Author Posted June 2, 2009 Members of the Vertical World Climbing Team travel next week to Sacramento CA to attend the USAC Division 1 Championship event. This is the 2nd stop on the way to the US Youth National Event in SLC in July. The goal is to make the US Team, and attend the Youth World Championship in France in August. Please come out and hear Steve, and support the kids effort in pursuit of their goals!
Denijoe Posted June 26, 2009 Author Posted June 26, 2009 On behalf of the Vertical World Climbing Team, I would like to thank Steve Swenson, and all the people that came out to the event! The money raised will help team members that otherwise could not afford it to travel to National & International climbing competitions. www.teamverticalworld.com
