USAC QE - Volunteer Sessions

We need your help! Every year, USA Climbing youth competitions take place nationwide, offering kids the chance to push their limits and enjoy the thrill of competitive climbing. These incredible events wouldn’t be possible without the support of amazing volunteers like you! Join us for Insight Bainbridge's USAC Qualifying Event on 11/7, where we’ll host hundreds of Washington state’s strongest young climbers.

We're calling on the community to volunteer for a shift as either a belayer or a judge to support our amazing youth climbers. You’ll be rewarded with a free guest pass, snacks, and our endless gratitude. Let's show climbing teams from across the state just how awesome the Insight community is!
