    Sober Climb Club: Empowering Recovery through Rock Climbing

    Ashley SunderlandBy 4 Mins Read

    Founded with a clear vision in mind, Sober Climb Club is dedicated to creating a healthy space for individuals in recovery. Its mission is simple yet powerful: to empower those on their recovery journey through the exhilarating sport of rock climbing. Partnering with Minneapolis Bouldering Project, the club provides a unique avenue for its members to engage in physical activity while fostering a sense of camaraderie within the recovery community.

    At Sober Climb Club, inclusivity and support are fundamental values. There are no skill or sobriety requirements to join the climb adventures. The club’s sole focus is on creating a supportive environment where individuals can connect, encourage one another, and pursue healthy activities together. Climb club members range from 24 hours to 26 years in recovery from drugs and alcohol.

    Mission: The club’s mission is to empower individuals in recovery through rock climbing, fostering physical, mental, and emotional well-being in a supportive community environment.

    Vision: Sober Climb Club aims to expand its reach to as many individuals in recovery as possible. The vision is to provide them with the tools, support, and community needed to thrive on their journey towards wellness.

    Join Sober Climb Club as it ascends to new heights, both on the climbing wall and in personal recoveries. Together, obstacles can be overcome, and the fullest potential can be reached.

    About the Bouldering Project

    WE PROVIDE FUN, INSPIRING, AND INCLUSIVE SPACES

    We’re so much more than just a climbing gym, and when you walk through our doors, you’ll feel it. The Bouldering Projects are places where people gather, build friendships, push themselves, and build purpose. What we started back in Seattle in 2011 has now grown to Austin, Minneapolis, Salt Lake City, Brooklyn, Boston, DC, and Tempe. We continue to grow because we believe Bouldering Project makes places better and lives fuller.
