Wanted: Used shoes, chalk bags, etc...

[unklehuck]

So I'm moving to Harare, Zimbabwe in September with my girlfriend. She has a sweet teaching gig at the University. I have no job and little hope of finding one there (~92% unemployment rate, apparently). Word on the street corner, however, has it that there is absolutely stellar granite within striking distance of Harare. Hoping to combine my need to feed the monkey with something socially productive, I'm in the early phases of attempting to establish a cross-cultural climbing experience for local school children, university students and US Embassy kids.

 

Here's what I'm trying to gather:

 

Used climbing shoes in decent condition of all sizes - particularly kids sizes

 

Chalk bags

 

Harnesses in good shape that you're too fat for or your children have outgrown

 

Anything else that may be useful in setting up top-ropes including webbing, static ropes, etc.

 

PM me if you have anything you'd like to share.

I have a pile of shoes with worn out toes... mostly ~us size 9. Are these of any use to you?
