Third Annual Birdsboro Climb and Clean September 19th-20th 2009
Southeastern PA regional climbers will be hosting the first annual “Clean and Climb” at the Old Dyer's Quarry, Rt. 82, Birdsboro PA. Park at Rustic Park, follow the signs to the climbing area. We will be clearing debris, conducting trail maintenance and providing an opportunity for beginning climbers to learn how to climb at our “UCanClimb 2” sites. Beginners of all ages are welcome take advantage of our “UCanClimb 2” stations, fully equipped with safety equipment and instructors.
The event is free and will be held starting at 9AM on September 19th and 20th. (Rain Date is September 26th and 27th) Additionally, Saturday, September 19th at 5:30 PM there will be a community dinner at the pavilion on Hay Creek where we will serve dinner and listen to a lecture/slide show by one for Birsdboro’s early developers, Bob Perna. Further, limited (primitive) camping is available starting Friday night, September 18th.
Our objectives are to teach stewardship-by-example to a younger generation of climbers, enhance relations with land managers and owners, and strengthen the reputation of the local climbing community,
No climbing experience is necessary, only a willingness to meet and work to ensure that our jewel of a sport climbing site will be here tomorrow.
