- What does a typical birthday party at Rockreation look like?
The first ten minutes, instructors run a game while we get everyone checked in and harnessed up. After going over rules, the party climbs hard for 50 minutes. We then break for fifteen minutes for food followed by another 40 minutes of climbing. We finish with a game as we get everyone deharnessed.
- Can I come early to set up?
You are welcome to come up to fifteen minutes before hand to set up the party.
- Can I have use of the party room after?
Due to the consistent use of the party room throughout the day, the use of the party room ends promptly after the two hour part. However, the party room can be reserved for use for 50 dollars per half hour.
- What if I am a little over on my number of climbers the day of the party?
We can usually accommodate an extra climber but we would not be able to provide an extra belayer. Given our limited number of space, we stress not to bring more than the party limit so that we can ensure that your party runs smoothly. There is no limit to spectators.
- What if I am a little under on my number of climbers the day of the party?
We would still have to charge the amount quoted, but if any parents wanted to join in to take the spot they are more than welcome climb to fill the quota.
- Who needs to fill out waivers?
Anyone coming into the gym, even if they are just watching, will need a participant agreement filled out prior to coming into the gym. This can be filled out online. Often times parents will drop off their child and come a little while before the party ends to watch. Regardless of the time spent in the gym, all spectators and participants will have to fill out waivers.
- What is provided in the party room?
We have six picnic size tables and 24 chairs. Any food and decorations would have to be brought in by the party. Table cloths are also recommended.
- Can we run a few games during the party?
Yes! Our program is flexible according to how you want to run the party. Tell your instructors before hand if you had any special requests and they will do their best to accommodate.
The minimum age to climb with an instructor is six.
