VIP Program
What is VIP?
The Vertical Incentive Program (VIP) is an incentive program to challenge members to climb as many vertical feet as possible at the Climbing Center on either of the two, 54-foot towers.
Like road racing, there are distance point challenges with unique and exciting rewards at each point! Remember, you can take as many semesters as you need to reach your long-term distance goal. The route you climb doesn't matter, so choose any route; just make it to the top!
