Itinerary:

As the grande finale to Go Climb Week, we are hosting an LGBTQ2S+ and allies climbing party at Boulders Climbing! A partnership between Arc'Teryx, Boulders and ACC Edmonton supported Edmonton Queer Climbing Collective, we want to create a safe and welcoming environment for everyone to enjoy themselves and climb. There will be vendors, drinks, food trucks, raffle prizes, a DJ, and more! Rental equipment included. All proceeds from ticket sales go to support Shades of Colour.

ABOUT SHADES OF COLOUR

Shades of Colour is a volunteer-run collective dedicated to supporting the Queer 2S, Black and POC community, including mental health, physical health, housing, and community support groups. They have a mutual aid fund that directly goes back into the hands of the most vulnerable QTBIPOC youth who need it the most. Proceeds raised at this event will further their goals of empowering vulnerable QTBIPOC youth.

 
ABOUT QUEER CLIMBING COLLECTIVE

Edmonton's Queer Climbing Collective is dedicated to creating barrier-free access to climbing, where LGBTQ2S+ people can feel connected to the community in a judgement-free and anti-oppressive space. The Collective is supported by ACC Edmonton Section's EDI Committee.

Notes:

Anti Oppressive Space

By attending this event, you agree to not intentionally spread racism, transphobia, ableism, fatphobia, or any other action that could be used to cause harm or exclusion towards other members. We are a space where you agree to challenge yourself to learn more about any topics that you may not have much knowledge about, without relying on the labour of others to teach you, unless it is freely offered. Please try your best to use the person's pronouns and name, if you mess up, apologize and move on!




*Cancellation Policy*: If a participant is unable to attend a paid course or trip, there will be no refund unless the participant finds a suitable replacement that is acceptable to the trip coordinator. Acceptable waiting list candidates will have priority. It will then be the participant's responsibility to recover funds from the replacement. If the coordinator cancels an event, participants get a refund (less any non-recoverable costs). Note that ACC National does not refund hut fees due to weather, delay, closures, or any other reasons. The Edmonton Section of the ACC is a not for profit club and we only charge attendees what it costs us to provide courses or trips.
