FAQs
-
All campers should come with clothes they can move freely in, socks, a water bottle, a snack, and a lunch (stuffed furry friends also welcome). All other climbing gear will be provided!
-
Campers will need a waiver filled out by a parent or caregiver (if your child has been to MetroRock within the last year, they likely already have one on file), a health examination form, and a medical form. Please email these filled-out forms to bkyouth@metrorock.com at least a week in advance. These only need to be submitted once per season.
-
Yes! We offer discounts for sibling sign-ups (use codes provided at checkout), members (10%), and multi-week sign-ups (5%). To take advantage of the latter two, make a request via email to bkyouth@metrorock.com. Discounts do not stack.
We are also passionate about making our Youth Programs accessible and inclusive for all — especially those who have traditionally been underrepresented in the climbing community. We offer two tiers of financial assistance for teams and youth programming. For more information and to apply: Youth Program Financial Aid Application

We are happy to offer full refunds to those who cancel no less than two weeks in advance of their scheduled day/s. If you need to cancel after that time period for any reason, you may only reschedule.
-
No. For safety reasons, we are unable to make any exceptions for children who will not be 5 years old by the day they are signed up for.

Climbing is an incredibly fun and challenging sport! It is also inherently dangerous, which makes following the rules all the more important. We expect all campers to be attentive to the rules as they are laid out at the beginning of every camp day, to listen to the counselors, to treat others with kindness, and to refrain from intentionally physically harmful or highly disruptive behavior.
MetroRock has a 3-strike policy for unsafe or significantly disruptive behavior. Strike 1 is a verbal warning, strike 2 is a verbal warning followed by a talk with parents/guardians, strike 3 may result in sitting out of class, a call home for early pick-up and/or reevaluation of the camper’s ability to participate in camp.
