CTC Session 5 Graduates!

On November 22, nine girls graduated from the fifth session of Climbing Toward Confidence. Laughter and tears marked the end of an amazing eleven weeks together for participants, mentors and program directors alike. Families had a chance to come witness the girls' climbing skills and to try out their own strength on the wall while girls belayed and cheered.

Thank you to our ten awesome mentors for all you have contributed to the program! And many thanks to Climbmax Climbing Center, Climbmax Mountain Guides, Asheville City Schools, the Asheville School, and the many people who have donated time and money to the success of CTC. Our gratitude also goes out to our generous food donors: Earthfare Market & Cafe, Greenlife Grocery, Jimmy John's Gourmet Sandwiches, Urban Burrito, Mellow Mushroom, Jersey Mike's Subs, Two Guys Hoagies and Marco's Pizza.

More adventures in climbing to come in February 2011!
