Thank you to everyone who came out to make the 3rd annual SLCA competition and party a success. Thanks to the generous support of our sponsors and attendees, door receipts and donations added up to a sizable sum! The funds raised by the event will be used to maintain fixed anchors and to preserve access to climbing areas.

From their web site:

Please help support the Salt Lake Climbers Alliance at the 3rd annual climbing competition and party. Climb in the comp, if only to try and burn off your friends on the pink taped problem. Then stay for the party and satisfy your post-comp hunger and thirst. Rumor has it MC will be showing some exclusive footage as well. If you appreciate fixed anchors that stay in the rock, and having local areas open to climbing, support the SLCA by attending a fun event.

Date: Thursday, May 3rd
Time: Comp 4:30-7:30, Party at 7:00
Where: The Front Climbing Club, 1450 South 400 West, SLC UT
Cost for comp and party: $30 donation, $5 off for pre-registration, $5 off for Front Members

Make your plans now.

Check-in at 1p, event starts at 2p.Citizen’s comps at The Front are for all ages and abilities. These are fun community events with an emphasis on camaraderie rather than competition. Check it out, you’ll be glad you did! Learn more about Citizen’s Comp’s at The Front here.

At the last comp we tested our new online scoring system. This comp we’ll open the online scoring for everyone. The more that participate, the faster we can get to the swag give-away. Plus, you can check your placement during the comp, or find the easy problems. Here’s how it works. When you check-in, we’ll give you your three character scoring code. With this code, you can enter any of your scores during the comp - do it as you’re waiting to do your next problem, do it for all problems you complete. It automatically computes your top scores.

- eliminate that ‘after the comp, wait’n for the raffle’ time
- increase scoring accuracy - you can check your own final score
- find those easy problems that everyone is doing
- your friends at home can check how you’re doing from the comfort of the internet

Early registration is now open. Please! Pre-register early. This helps us plan for the event, and it will really speed your way through the check-in process on the day of the event.
