Boat Rock Paid Off Through Triple Crown Fundraising
Hey Climbers: I just wanted to pass on some particulars about the finale this weekend--everthing went extremely well, and the weather was absolutely perfect. We raised over $1,200 in climber donations for Boat Rock.
With the help of the Chaco/Sweet Water Event in ATL, RockCreek/Chaco custom sandal sales at TCrown, climber donations at each of the three events (@$3,600), and TCrown donations to Boat Rock, I'm sure we will have raised enough $$ to cover the rest of the BR note.
As soon as we have a tally on the final expenses (buses, catering, printing, tees, et al) we'll make the official Triple Crown donation to the SCC and CCC as well.
We also raised $2,500 for Habitat for Humanity on Sunday--most of the climbers competing at that event also donated their winnings to Habitat--the HFH representative gave major kudos to the SCC and Triple Crown at the pavilion, and especially on Talk Radio and the local tv news. Habitat is certainly a great cause and the donation provided much needed positive PR for the climbing community that reached the general public.
Major thanks came from the clubhouse manager at Montlake on Saturday--they wanted to pass on sincere thanks to the entire climbing community for supporting the golf club--They truly appreciate our help and support up there--
Montlake requested to have some of our guides--Jim and I met with the clubhouse manager today to donate the remaining guides. We'll mail a care package to the Luken's again too--
We also had a great turn-out at the Rock/Creek (Tommy and Beth Slideshow)-- 160 thru the door and 110 stayed for the show. With the help of Rock/Creek and Tommy and Beth, the SCC also received some great PR via a podcast on Friday as well. MAJOR THANKS (again and again) to R/C for all of their help throughout the entire series.
We'll work on a full write-up this week and get a posting asap--
Special thanks to everyone from the Chattanooga Climbers' Association that came out and volunteered their time (all weekend!) for the cause--

Best,
