Danielle Rocks - September 17, 2011

The Rock Club community’s good friend Danielle Watson, an experienced rock climber, had left California to spend the summer in Colorado camping and climbing with her boyfriend. Unfortunately, she had a climbing accident during the trip and sustained extremely serious injuries from her fall. At the time of the accident she was without health insurance and has had to undergo several surgeries. Although her doctors do not believe she will ever walk again, we know Danielle has not given up on a full recovery.

To help with that recovery TRC hosted Danielle Rocks, a charity climb-a-thon to raise money for Danielle’s medical bills. With the help of a generous partner who offered to match our fundraising, the TRC community brought in thousands of dollars for Danielle!

Boys’ Group Home - Westchester Family Services - May 31, 2007 The Rock Club worked with Family Services of Westchester to allow kids from facilities in the area to experience rock climbing for free. A big thank you to the members of the women’s group who generously donated their time to allow this program to happen!





















Girls’ Group Home - Westchester Family Services - May 17, 2007

From the Westchester Family Services blog: Friday, June 01, 2007 The Rock Club once again hosted teenagers from one of Family Services of Westchester’s group homes. This time it was the boys. The boys’ group home, located in White Plains, houses boys who are between 13-21 and cannot for emotional or safety reasons remain in their own homes. The ones who joined us last night thoroughly enjoyed themselves. It was a phenomenal time! Climbing is a great activity that pumps you up and is very empowering. It is an incredible feeling to reach the top of a difficult climb. These boys, who have had a difficult life, had an opportunity to challenge themselves, smile, and also see that climbing is not a gender dominated sport. The women’s group again volunteered to belay these newcomers and noted several differences between the boys and the girls who climbed two weeks ago. The boys tired out more quickly on the climbs! However, the boys took to bouldering like a fish takes to water. Bouldering is fun and challenging in that it is just you and the wall - no ropes. It’s not high, 15 ft., but it can put your endurance, creativity, and strength to the test. Kudos to the women’s group at The Rock Club - you guys are awesome! Wednesday, May 30, 2007 Rock climbing can be an intimidating, humbling, but incredibly empowering experience. The women at The Rock Club, located in New Rochelle, NY, were kind enough to share their love of climbing with Family Services of Westchester’s girls’ group home (located in White Plains) a few weeks ago. Four girls from the home decided to brave the high walls and attemped (successfully) to climb with the help from the women volunteers. It was exciting to see the girls change from sullen and uninterested to enthusiastic and incredible climbers! To see these girls, who have been removed from their own homes for their protection, have a strong sense of personal accomplishment was a heart warming sight. This week the women’s climbing group will be host to FSW’s boys’ group home. We hope to have continued success with both groups and many more opportunities for us to share our love of climbing!
