AMC Conference - Indoor Climbing - Athlete Sign Up

The 19th Annual AMCSI Conference (for individuals with Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita) will be held July 3rd-6th 2024 in Atlanta, GA.
As part of the conference, attendees have the option to attend an indoor adaptive climbing session on July 3rd.
Catalyst Sports are hosting this activity and we are looking forward to climbers joining us from the AMCSI conference.
 

Getting there:
The AMCSI Conference was unable to secure a shuttle/transportation.  Please plan to coordinate your own transportation to our climb. 

What to expect?

When you arrive, Catalyst staff & volunteers will help you get your climbing harness and shoes and show you around the climbing gym. Once you are ready to climb we will pair you with a belayer who will work with you and get you climbing. We have a variety of adaptive equipment to support climbers so we will spend some time establishing which equipment would be best for you.
