olyclimber Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 I think it would be worth noting that this is at Stone Gardens and not at Index. I was a little confused by the poster. BTW, isn't the best bouldering at index actually at zekes wall or at least not at Index wall proper?

selkirk Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 Is it safe to assume that spectators are welcome to come any buy raffle tickets (but don't need to pay the $30 entry fee, or the usual Stone Gardens entry fee?) Thanks!
jibby Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 You guys should've picked a different date, its the same day as the Warehouse Rock Gym comp, we already sent out the fliers prior to this anouncement of the pump a thon. You would've got more people...
stonegardens Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 Selkirk-Anyone in attendance at the event is STRONGLY encouraged to donate either by entering the competition anyways, buying raffle tickets, or just donating money to the WCC. The $30 competition fee and money from raffle tickets will all go to the WCC. Jibby- Sorry about the conflict of dates, but this has been in the works for quite some time. Maybe people can go to the Warehouse and then come up here?

112 Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 I really like Stone Gardens, but just a reminder to keep your valuables locked up; I had my wallet stolen earlier today from my jacket in a cubbyhole, and the bastards already charged $300+ to one card. In talking to my financial institutions, it sounds like I am covered. I hope they get caught. The cash in the wallet alone should have been sufficient, but then they go and charge it up. Anyways, be careful and have fun!
