Each year the climbers of East Tennessee come out for one day to give back to our favorite crag, do some trail work and have some fun. Let’s make this year the best event yet!!!
Come out and support the Annual Access Fund Adopt a Crag Day and East Tennessee Climbers Coalition, ‘ETCC”, fundraiser at the Obed Wild and Scenic River on September 10, 2011. Please SAVE THE DATE and make plans to come out to work and play with your friends.
**Make sure and bring your climbing stuff, as will be plenty of time for climbing.***
Date: Saturday, September 10, 2011
Schedule: 9:00 am meet at Del and Marti's to register, pick up a raffle ticket and get work assignment
9:30 leave for project
6:30 pm - games, announcements, raffle, dinner, silent auction and fun (bring your own beverages)
Make sure and pick up your raffle ticket in the morning. The tickets are really important because the number of tickets given out lets us know how much food to buy for dinner. Without a ticket you cannot win the great prizes donated by our wonderful sponsors.
Parking: There is only limited parking available at the Lilly Pad so please park at South Clear.
Supplies: Each volunteer will be responsible for their own lunch and water, also please bring tools (branch loppers, shovels, gloves, chainsaws, etc.).
Special Note: The Obed has millions of ticks, they are all waiting to eat climbers at the work sites. MAKE EM STARVE ! ! ! ! Bring insect repellent! The stronger the better!
Other Stuff:
1. Everyone should bring their own cups, plates, etc. Our effort to reduce trash at the event has been a huge a success. So please bring your own and pack it out.
2. There will be cool prizes and a silent auction for other cool stuff (thanks again sponsors). The proceeds benefit the ETCC and will stay at the Obed. PLEASE BRING CASH OR CHECKS. We cannot accept credit cards.
3. The ETCC will also be selling those really cool OBED bumper stickers and brushes.
4. High School Climbing League coaches, please encourage your students to participate.
