At Athletic Club Alabama we are passionate about rock climbing! We are so excited about our recent partnership with Peregrine Climbing Guides that we thought we would throw a party to celebrate! So, what exactly is a Free Rock Climbing Party? As a Healthy Huntsville event, think free climbing, free climbing instruction, free child care and free food. Also think beer and wine. Though drinks are not free, we will be running some drink specials!
THE SHINDIG
Join us on Monday, April 1st from 5-8pm. Yes, that’s April Fool’s Day, but this is no joke! You’ll be in for a fun night of climbing with our friends from Peregrine Climbing Guides and Alabama Outdoors. No pressure to join the club, just come hang out (literally) and meet new friends!
