It Looks Like This Will Really Happen!

Welcome to Tales of the True North, a blog aimed at sharing the progress of the new indoor climbing gym we're planning for the north end of Toronto, opening (if all goes well) in early 2010.

A lot has come together in the past few weeks. True North Climbing Inc. has been incorporated. We have a lawyer and an accountant on our team. Loan applications have been prepared, and will be submitted when we have a lease offer signed, and we're in the midst of negotiating the terms of that with the landlord. The web site is up, and email is working. And we're running a contest at 99designs.com to choose the logo; check out the designs!

Once we have the location secured (i.e. the lease has been signed and the financing is in place), we'll share the details of what we believe to be a fantastic location. That should all happen within the next few weeks. Four wall building companies are currently preparing their bids on the project, and once we choose one of them, we'll get going on the design of the climbing walls, which is probably the most exciting part of planning the gym!


Stay tuned for more info about our new gym.
