Meet the Catalyst Climbing Team Heading to Nationals

The paraclimbing season is in full swing and the Catalyst team is prepping for USA Paraclimbing Nationals in March! This year's nationals are in Gaithersburg, Maryland at the brand new Sport Rock Rio facility.

To help cover the costs of Nationals (entry fees, lodging and transportation), our athletes are taking on the Challenge for Access. Help them meet their fundraising goal below!
