Our G20: 20 Great Reasons to Join Us This Weekend

Downtown Toronto is expected to be difficult to get around this weekend, with the G20 in town. Here is our own version of the G20: 20 Great reasons to come to True North Climbing:
  1. No traffic disruptions are expected in our part of town
  2. There is plenty of free parking
  3. The air conditioning will keep things comfortable
  4. No politicians are expected to attend
  5. We have replaced the 2" slackline with a clean piece of webbing!
  6. As always, there are lots of great new routes and boulder problems that our team of routesetters have put up this week.
  7. There is still almost a week left in our Summer Membership Special deal (3 month pre-paid membership for $150; $120 for those who qualify for the discount rate: students, seniors, police, fire fighters, paramedics, bouldering-only)
  8. Still no HST on a day pass!
  9. All your friends are coming. Don't have any friends? Come by and make a few new ones!
  10. Coca Cola finally made their delivery; our drink coolers are full of cold refreshing drinks again!
  11. There will be some additional activity on the airstrip next to our building. While no VIPs are expected to fly in or out, the military will be bringing in some CF18 Hornet fighter jets. The landlord has apologized for the noise that they will make. We think that's pretty cool.
  12. And speaking of loud rumblings, if there is another earthquake, don't you want to be standing on a padded floor?
  13. The merchant's market at 40 Carl Hall Rd will be open Saturday and Sunday. Check out the food court at the south end for some good eats.
  14. By Saturday morning the railroad crossing at Carl Hall Rd (just before you turn right to get to our place) will be redone, so most of those bumps should be smoothed out.
  15. After the week you have had, don't you need to work out a little stress?
  16. Our friendly staff (Natalie, Stephen, Clint, Jamie, Jonny, Shaun, DK, Kyle, Mike, Martin, Jackie, Roman, Ryan and Gerald this weekend) will be there!
  17. The chimney.
  18. The slab.
  19. The cracks.
  20. It's climbing; who needs another reason?
