St. Patrick’s Day Celebration!
March 17, 2026
We’re excited to introduce a brand-new event at our facility: our very first Lucky Routes Day!
For this special St. Patrick’s Day celebration, we’ll have “lucky” climbs hidden throughout the gym. They could be top rope routes or boulder problems, and only the Leprechaun of the Day will know which ones they are.
Here’s how it works:
Come in, start climbing, and if you happen to send one of the lucky routes… you win a prize! And there are lots of prizes up for grabs. You might score a projectROCK shirt of your choosing or even a certificate for extra luck (some might call it a Whammy!).

Our staff will be decked out in full St. Patrick’s Day spirit, so wear your green and join the fun!

Plus, our setter magicians are cooking up even more festive surprises — so keep an eye on our social media for additional St. Patrick’s Day excitement.
