Let’s Give Our Athletes the Tools to Climb Higher!

The Planet Rock Team Boosters are kicking off with an exciting goal — raising $15,000 to purchase new comp-style climbing holds for our youth climbing team!

These are the same types of holds our athletes encounter at Qualifying Events, Regionals, Divisionals, and Nationals, and they’ll allow our setters/coaches to create real comp-style problems right here at home, whether it be Madison Heights or Ann Arbor. With these holds, every athlete on the team can train more effectively, climb stronger, and feel more confident when the next big competition arrives.

Why This Matters
Our climbers work incredibly hard, putting in hours each week balancing school, training, and travel — and we know parents and families already do so much to support them.

That’s why this is our only fundraising ask from the parents of the season.
Your one-time donation will make a lasting difference for every athlete on the team — from our newest members to our seasoned competitors.

Where the Money Goes
✅ Purchase of competition-style climbing holds
✅ Ability to set routes designed to replicate real comp challenges
✅ Holds distributed between Ann Arbor and Madison Heights gyms
✅ Any additional funds will stay in the Booster account for future projects supporting our athletes and coaches

Coach Becca will oversee how the holds are used and shared between the gyms to make sure every team member benefits from this investment.

Donate

The Impact
When our team trains on holds that match national competition standards, they build:
Stronger technique
Sharper problem-solving
Greater confidence
❤️ Stronger team spirit

Your contribution — big or small — helps give every athlete access to the same high-level training tools used by elite climbers across the country.

Together, We Climb

Thank you for helping us reach new heights!
