The club meets every Tuesday night at present to climb either indoors out outdoors depending on weather and daylight hours. In winter we meet at the 'Help a Guernsey Child' wall at the Scout headquarters at Les Mainguys and use the indoor wall there, in summer we climb on the local crags. Indoor evenings start at 7pm or and finish around 9pm, outdoor climbing starts at 5:30 ~ 6pm and finishes when it gets dark or the tide comes in!
Membership fees:-
£20 per year for adults, £15 per year
for juniors/unemployed/OAPS which covers affiliation to the BMC and club
funds for equipment/training. An additional charge of £3.50
is added for a session at the HAGC wall as we have to pay the Scout Association
for use of the wall.
Restrictions:-
The club does not take on disabled
members as
the local crags are totally unsuited to taking disabled climbers.
The minimum age is 16, and parental permission is needed for members
under
18. The club will only take on novices in the winter as it's
easier
and safer to teach them all the skills they need indoors before getting
onto the crags. If you are a novice it is recommended that you
contact the club first before turning up. If you are a proficient
belayer (double ropes, italian
hitch etc.), can abseil, stop and ascend your own rope with prussiks
then
you are quite welcome to join at any time.
