Sounds good on the Dyno comp. Maybe we can come up with some other types of competitions as well. SO let's put on our thinking caps!!! We will be back at Torrent so think of the layout. How about a slack line overthe pond?

I am sure HF will come to my rescue at the dunking booth!!!

Here are some ideas borrowed from the cavers Old Timers Reunion event:

-Yard Sale & Flea Market (Items need not be climbing related)
-Sauna & Hot Tub
-Talent Show
-Gear Auction
-Climbing Olympics:
*Dynos
*Slack Line
*Speed Climbing
*Ropes Course
*Knot Tying
*Climbing Quiz
*Fun Run (5k run, 1k run in climbing shoes)
*Sleeping Bag (Get undressed & dressed while in bag)

Sounds good Static, but you seemed to be fixated on the hot tubs

And what about the sleeping bag event???

Thanks Gretchen.

FYI - the Murray property includes Bob Marley, Drive By, Oil Crack, Arena, Solar Collector, Dark Side, Getaway, and some other obscure areas. By my guesstimate there are about 250 routes on the property and would probably comprise 20% of all the routes in the Red and 40% of the sport routes. Plus, there is a ton of new route potential. It's an area worth saving for climbers.

Ok maybe it's kinda korny, but how about one of those things where you get the people you know to donate so much money per foot that you climb.
People do it for runs and stuff. People pledge to pay so much per mile run.
Come up with a form that everyone can down load and print. they take it around to family, friends, co-workers, etc. Get them to pledge say 10 cents per foot climbed on a particular weeknd, then go out and climb your ass off all weekend and collect your money and give it to the coalition.

I think a perfect opportunity to raise money would be a concert by our famed "Odub". i would gladly pay $10 to $20 to see this madman live. what do you "traddies" think? the word of this is spreading rapidly throughout the western US as we speak. could be quite the hit yo.

That's a great idea Jeff!

HF, Not sure who you are talking about.
