Join VCU's Climbathon to support Beyond Boundaries! Climb, connect, and make an impact while raising funds to make outdoor adventures accessible to everyone, regardless of ability. Every dollar raised helps Beyond Boundaries empower individuals through adaptive outdoor programs. All volunteers climb free!

This year's climbing format will be an endurance challenge with multiple levels, achieved through climbing as many boulder, top rope, or lead routes as possible (ex. one top rope route = 40ft, boulder route = 10ft). 

• As a whole, we are looking to climb a total of at least 5,729 feet, which is the height of Mount Rogers, the highest natural point in Virginia. 

• The organization that contributes the most distance climbed will receive prizes.

• The top 3 individuals that contributes the most distance climbed will receive prizes. 

We also have a donation challenge that starts NOW!

• All together, we are trying to donate a total of at least $2000 to Beyond Boundaries!

• The organization that donates the most will receive prizes.

• The top 3 individuals that donate the most will receive prizes.

Feel free to reach out to family and friends to donate on behalf of you or your organization!

There will be free drinks and snacks!
We will announce raffle winners, awards, and prizes at 5pm!

Come enjoy the company of other LBGTQ+ Folks, climb a little, and enjoy free snacks. Top Out RVA is hosting!

Join the Boulder Babes Coalition for an evening of volunteering and climbing with Beyond Boundaries and the McShin Alumni Association! We’ll kick things off with a short intro to bouldering techniques and safe falling practices, then spend the evening climbing together and building community on the wall. No experience needed—just bring your psych and be ready to support an amazing group of climbers!

come join us at väsen brewing for the premiere of the biggest climbing film of the year!

"Reel Rock 19" is a collection of three world-class climbing films showcasing diverse stories across different climbing disciplines and continents, including a poignant tale of second chances on Squamish's iconic Cobra Crack, a grueling big wall attempt on Patagonia's Torre Central, and the pursuit of a 5.15 first ascent with an unexpected partnership, often highlighting themes of personal struggle, redemption, and overcoming challenges through climbing. 

A percentage of all ticket sales will go to Beyond Boundaries, in support of their mission.

Start your morning with coffee, movement, and expert advice. Enjoy a fresh cup of Blanchard's Coffee, before moving through an energizing vinyasa flow to wake up your body and build strength.

After class, Dr. Ronesi will be available for a Q&A on injury prevention, recovery, and climbing performance. Come for the coffee, stay for the movement, and leave with the knowledge to climb stronger.

Free for Members, $10 Fitness Drop-in Fee for guests

The Women+ Training Clinic is a special space for climbers who identify as women, non-binary, or gender non-conforming to come together to grow skills and foster community. Offered twice a year, we focus on setting and achieving goals with and for our participants. Whether you want to build your technique, strength -mental and physical- or boost your confidence as a climber, our passionate coaches are here to guide your way. Clinic sessions consist of bouldering and ropes climbing as well as physical conditioning over the course of 8 weeks. From week one, we focus on pushing ourselves outside the comfort zones with a “challenge by choice” mentality -so get ready to work and play hard! Expect to feel sore but proud, get personalized feedback from coaches, and walk away feeling ready to sustain your own training routine.

Join AcroLove teachers Molly Rae Pearl and Justin Lowery for an RVAcro session on Saturday, January 25th, at 1 PM! This class is beginner-focused and perfect for anyone who wants to learn how to stack people on people (safely, of course).

Justin has been teaching acro since 2016, and together, Molly and Justin create a fun, welcoming space for everyone to play. Acro and rock climbing go together like peanut butter and jelly: climbing builds pulling strength, and acro builds pushing strength and body awareness. Plus, it’s just ridiculously fun.

Come ready to learn, laugh, and maybe even fly—it’s going to be a blast!

No partner required. We'll be teaching spotting too.

Cost: Sliding scale $15-$30 directly to RVA Acro when you arrive.
