This time the preview covers more than the weekend.  We have a few events coming up in the next week and then, on the American side, we are taking a break for Thanksgiving.  Here’s what’s coming:

NCBS – Altitude, Gatineau, QC
Cost: $5 + $11.95 bouldering day pass or membership to Altitude Gym
Climbing: 6:00pm – 8:30pm
Categories: Open, Rec and Youth

This comp is part of the National Capital Bouldering Series.  There is a 100 person cap on this event, so pre-registration is a good idea.  A unique format is used for this series, so make sure you know what’s going on before you get there.

Gravity Boulder Night – Gravity Climbing Gym, Hamilton ON
Cost: just the day pass or membership to Gravity Gym
Climbing: no set start time

This is a super laid back comp that is more a night of bouldering.  There are prizes for the top finishing male and female climber.  There is no additional fee to take part in the comp and there is no set start time, just show up whenever to start having fun!

After these comps, there is nothing on the schedule until December 7 when the Canadians throw down at the next eastern TdB stop (at True North, Toronto, ON) and the American Youth head to ABS Regionals for a chance to move on to Divisonals.  Due to the holiday, there may be a delay in some results.

To my American readers, Happy Thanksgiving!
