Let's Get This Party Started!

After a lengthy and rigorous process to ensure that what we plan to build meets the appropriate building and safety codes, and satisfies each of 3 structural engineers (representing Eldorado Climbing Walls, our architect and our landlord), we now have approval to proceed with construction! We're now mobilizing both Eldorado's crew to build the climbing terrain, and the general contractor's trades to build all the other parts of the facility (change rooms, reception area, electrical, lighting, HVAC and plumbing support). So after almost 7 months of planning, designing, negotiating and badgering, we have reached the real start of the project. While things have slipped a bunch from the schedule we had in mind, I am optimistic that we can still find ways to make up the time and open the gym in early March as intended.

We'll see about getting some pictures of what we have planned posted in the coming days. Stay tuned; we have some very cool and unique stuff in store for you!
