The Coopers Rock Climb-a-thon is a fun and friendly top rope competition where climbers earn points based on route difficulty and mileage over three hours of climbing. Planned by Garrett College’s Outdoor Leadership & Adventure Education (OLA) students, this fundraiser directly supports OLA student gear, certifications, and training.
Over 50 routes (5.2–5.11+) will be available, turning Coopers Rock into an outdoor climbing gym. Ages 8+ welcome!
Prizes are awarded to top climbers and fundraisers—each $50 raised earns you an extra prize entry. Raise $250 and your $50 entry fee is waived!
Every registrant gets a personal fundraising page to support the cause.
