Newsletter from BK 1.9.
Hello dear friends of BK!
Everyday life has started with a bang: the junior groups began already in August and the Training Groups and Jumppi start this week! Welcome!
Soon there will also be brand new climbing groups for the elderly! We are really excited about these groups and hope that as many people as possible will find their way to the place! Read more below!
In addition, there will be the long-awaited joint outdoor climbs for BK Climbers club members! Come bouldering at the historic Taivaskallio. Learn more below.
Great news also for those interested in Kino! Kino's gym in Lauttasaari has only been open to annual members and Premium card holders for the past few years. Now during September, we will keep the doors open on Tuesdays and Thursdays! More on this below!
At Boulderkeskus, you can organize parties from pre-Christmas gatherings to birthdays and company team building days! Booking birthday groups has now been made easier on our website. Below you can read more about organizing birthday parties at BK!
BK CLIMBERS CLUB GOES OUTDOORS! COME AND JOIN US!
Coming up: outdoor bouldering in good company, as BK Climbers’ outdoor climbing starts in September! There will be an outdoor bouldering session together with our BKC coaches Ron and Tuukka. Crash pads come on behalf of the house, but you can also take yours if you have one.
It doesn’t matter if you’ve never bouldered outdoors before: now you can safely explore the world of rock climbing! Coaches will give you tips and help you get started. NB! It’s not a beginner’s course, but an easy way to try it out! Club’s outdoor bouldering costs nothing, but it is intended for BK Climbers association’s members!
You can send a message with your phone number in advance to: lifewithedvard@gmail.com. This way Ron and Tuukka can send more detailed instructions about the meeting place or possible last-minute matters through a Whatsapp group. You can also just show up if you want!
Place and time:
Taivaskallio 27.9. at 14.00 - 16.30
Weather permitting of course: if it is too wet, the climbs will be postponed. The locations can be found from the 27crags app or you can ask for further details from Ron via email. Come and join!
Ps. under 18-year-olds are also welcome, but only with a guardian!
