Unstaffed Member Access

More climbing, more flexibility! Eligible members ages 16+ can now access the gym outside scheduled public sessions, whenever the SVYCC building is open.

You'll need an eligible membership or 10-punch pass, a signed waiver, and a quick orientation before your first unstaffed visit.
