So, I just checked the calendar today and realized that we're only 3 weeks away from the 4th annual Rock the Blocs Boulderfest in The Boulderfields on June 18th and 19th. It's creeping up on us fast! We've been working hard this spring to get the event all set up and get The Boulderfields ready as well. Registrations are rolling in, but in true RTB fashion, it seems that many people are taking their sweet time registering (hint hint, get it done!).
This year, just to sweeten the deal, we'll be doing a prize draw on June 6th (with a prize donated from one of our amazing supporters) for those people who register anytime before that date. Early registration helps us get an idea of how many people to expect, what kind of problem distribution we need, organizational details, etc, so please take the time to register here: http://goo.gl/forms/GfCgwx4SnB
If you'd like more information about the whole festival, check here: http://okbouldering.blogspot.ca/2016/04/a-big-thanks-to-caillum-smith-from.html
With the festival having grown every year since its inception, so too has the support. This year, we have a bigger line-up of sponsors/ supporters than ever before and many of them will be reppin' at the fest. I'd like to say a massive thanks to the supporters listed below for providing many incredible prizes for this year's event!
And, on that note, please remember that some of the primo prizes at this year's fest will be raffle items. You can buy tickets at the fest and put them into a draw for whichever item your heart desires. All funds raised go to The Okanagan Bouldering Society. This is our biggest fundraiser of the year, and not only covers the costs of running RTB, but also supports us in the work we do for bouldering areas in the Okanagan Valley. So, please bring a bit of cash if you can!
Thanks again to all the supporters below!!! We love you!
