Our Mission and Vision
The Planet Rock Team Booster Club exists to strengthen the Planet Rock Climbing Team community by providing unwavering support to its athletes, coaches, and families.
We believe that climbing is more than just a sport. It’s a powerful environment where athletes learn resilience, leadership, teamwork, and sportsmanship. Our vision is to foster a supportive and connected community that empowers these athletes to grow both on and off the wall.
Our Board
Ian Bolton
President
Climber: Macy Bolton, MH Comp Team
"I’ve been involved with the Planet Rock Team for more than eight years, and I proudly consider myself the team’s biggest fan! Watching my daughter, Macy, grow not only as a climber but also as a person through her time with the team has been incredible. Her closest friends are the ones she’s met at Planet Rock, and I’m committed to supporting her and all of her teammates — past, present, and future.”
Dave Ianuzzi
Treasurer
Climbers: Elena & Anastasia Ianuzzi, MH Prep Team
"I’m dad to two daughters on the Planet Rock Climbing Team who are much better climbers than me. A lifelong lover of the outdoors, I enjoy hiking, camping, and spending time in nature with my family. Grateful for the impact the team has had on my daughters, I'm excited to serve on the board to help support the athletes, coaches, and families.”
Julia Huffman
Director
Climbers: Lovisa & Liv Nystrom, A2 Comp & A2 Youth Teams
"I am from Michigan and have lived in Ann Arbor since 2007. While I enjoy jogging and a solid yoga practice…I am not a climber (gasp)… I am excited about the vision of the Board and the positive impact it will have on the kids into the future. These kids are so driven, and establishing this incremental support will further enable them to reach their goals.”
David Juan
Secretary
Climbers: Emma Juan, MH Prep Team | Sophia Juan, MH Climbing Club
"Our family started climbing in 2024, and we completely fell in love with the sport. Watching my daughters, Emma and Sophia, grow through their time with the Madison Heights teams has been incredible. They both absolutely love the community and the sport, which is why you can find us at Madison Heights Planet Rock more days of the week than not. As a new member of the board, I'm thrilled to support our climbers, give back to this amazing community, and help the Planet Rock Boosters give every athlete the opportunity to crush their goals."
