In response to ongoing interest from alumni of the previous 3 CTC sessions, the CTC Leaders Program kicked off in March 2010. Participants in this weekly program continue to develop their climbing skills while exploring self-identified topics of interest such as coping with bullying, talking about feelings and dealing with puberty. Throughout the program, the girls are endeavoring to create a “new girl culture” that operates with fairness, honesty, and inclusivity. Each week, prominent women from the Asheville community visit for dinner to talk about their teen years and how they got to be who they are now. The CTC Leaders program culminates in an overnight climbing trip that will allow the girls to experience hiking, camping, and multi-pitch climbing.
