BK Climbers' summer camps for juniors
BK Climbers’ summer camps filled with games and climbing will start in June! We are offering summer camps in Boulderkeskus Kino (in Lauttasaari), Espoo and Herttoniemi.
All children interested in climbing, from beginners to more experienced climbers, are welcome to participate in the summer camps! The camp days include practicing climbing techniques, playful climbing exercises, games, as well as lunch and rest breaks. Weather permitting, we’ll also enjoy the outdoors and may go climbing outside.
On some days, the campers may visit another Boulderkeskus gym or go outdoors using public transport. Unless otherwise announced, the campers will meet at the gym where the camp is located and return to the same place at the end of the day.
The camps will be in Finnish.

If your child has a valid seasonal HSL travel card, please pack it for the camp days. The club will pay for travel tickets if needed.
Insurance
Please note that there is no insurance from the camp’s side. In case of an accident, the participant must have a valid insurance that covers climbing during the camp. Please check your own insurance policies to see if it covers climbing.
If your child is not a member of a club belonging to the Finnish Climbing Association (SKIL), you can join the club here if necessary. The insurance is valid until the end of the year. If your child is a member of another climbing club belonging to SKIL, the same sports insurance is valid.
The full members of BK Climbers ry or another club belonging to the Finnish Climbing Association (SKIL) have a valid sports insurance (“Sporttiturva”) that covers climbing accidents. You can get BK Climbers’ membership here.
Cancellation policy
If you have to cancel your registration for the camp, do it as soon as possible so that we can offer the vacated place to others.
The cancellation policy is as follows:
The camp registration can be canceled free of charge two (2) weeks before the start of the camp. After this, it is not possible to refund the camp fee except against a medical certificate. The illness must be reported by e-mail bk.climbers@gmail.com as soon as possible and the medical certificate must be sent to the same e-mail address. Those who do not attend or leave the camp without notification will always be charged the full fee.
