cman Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 Word is that vertical world is building a new gym in that area, not sure where exactly or when it will be open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirp Posted February 16, 2004 Author Share Posted February 16, 2004 There was talk of a VW gym in the area before I left for Vegas 7 years ago. I wish they would but it still seems sketchy. Ill check out their web site and pop em an email! Thanks for the post!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollo Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 UPS has converted a raquetball court into a bouldering room. Pretty good routes there, and its only a few blocks from my house. Alpine Experience in Oly is planning to open a large gym in a few months. VW has no plans to build a gym in T-town, to my knowledge. I think they're too busy trying to fill the bremerton gym.

foraker Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 Has anyone followed through on this? I'd be interested in investigating the opportunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollo Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 Alpine experience plans to open their gym in oly sometime in July. From what I've heard, its sounds like it will be pretty sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hendorama Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 About two or three weeks ago some guy came into backpackers supply showing a picture of some building he had bought out by the Narrows, and he was going to build a climbing wall there. He wanted to let us (some employees and customers) know about it, but he didn't have a proposed date for opening or anything. It is probably just another dead end, but who knows.

Figger_Eight Posted May 19, 2004 Share Posted May 19, 2004 Word on the street is that the gym by the Narrows is a pretty sure deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollo Posted May 19, 2004 Share Posted May 19, 2004 any more info on a Narrows gym fig8? This creates the quandry of whether I should buy a membership to the new gym in Oly or not. The gym in Oly opens around the 4th of July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figger_Eight Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 Wait for the one in Tacoma to open Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Off_White Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 No no, Olympia is the obvious choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I was in VW in Bremerton last weekend and asked. Guy at the counter said they are looking at South King County. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figger_Eight Posted May 21, 2004 Share Posted May 21, 2004 The one in Tacoma ain't gonna be a Vertical World. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
