Farewell To the Old Girl

Toronto Climbing Academy is closing the doors at its original location today, after having opened their spiffy new gym last month. It's a sad day, as many of us spent a lot of time at the old gym. I have been a TCA member for over 6 years, and brought many friends in to climb there, mainly on Wednesday nights after work. It was a good gym, with a great relaxed social atmosphere, and I always felt welcome there.

The new location on Curity Ave (near St Clair & O'Connor) is bright and shiny and new. It's spacious, with glass on 2 sides bringing in a lot of natural light. They have put in a ton of lead lines, and there are some great routes up on the walls. Overall it has a lot of improvements over the old location. While it's sad to say goodbye to the old gym, it's great to see the new location looking so good.

Here's the Facebook event for the closing ceremonies: http://www.facebook.com/?sk=events#!/event.php?eid=10150114401555402

  1. Shame, lots of great memories at the old place. Too bad I couldn't make it out for the last day, hope they gave the old girl a grand finally.
