the Cost of Membership at a Rock Climbing Gym

I got a monthly membership to a rock climbing gym in Berkeley. This is a place where you can go to climb for one day or buy a membership. It also has yoga classes and other gym equipment, besides the rock climbing wall. It is a fun place for children and adults to climb. If you bring your own equipment, you get a discount, both for monthly memberships and for day passes.

The gym is great. Everyone knows the regulars and they don't have to take the belay test each day like the day pass people do. People are willing to belay each other and kind of help out the day pass people. Sometimes there are birthday parties and other large groups and that is kind of annoying because they get in the way and they're hard to navigate around, but it's not too bad.

Rock climbing gyms tend to be more expensive than other gyms, so make sure that you are financially prepared. Some gyms will give a ten pass discount or something like that so that there is an option between a monthly membership and a day pass. Bring your own equipment if possible, as that will also help save you money.
