TEMPORARY RE-CLOSURE

These are difficult times for all of us and the last thing we want to do right now is close our doors (again) . We also respect and appreciate the role we play in protecting the health + safety of our staff, members and communities. 

Therefore, in accordance with Governor Inslee’s latest announcement, Edgeworks + Stone Gardens will temporarily suspend all reservations and indoor climbing related operations, effective Tuesday, November 17 - December 14.

Our retail options will remain open; providing great deals for your holiday shopping needs - more details coming soon!
WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT 

We want to be very clear about one thing - entering this 2nd shutdown order is tough and the support from our members + community will be critical to our recovery and return.

We’ve always seen our facilities as more than just plastic holds on vertical walls. We’re a community of climbers and friends; a place to come together in shared energy + excitement for adventure, a challenge or escape from the daily grind. It’s these connections that we miss the most and we know many of you do too.

Like most climbing gyms across the country, Edgeworks + Stone Gardens have been losing money for the last 8 months; forced to cut pay and hours for employees. Things were finally starting to turn around for us this month. Now, faced with another shutdown, support from our members will ultimately be our key to surviving COVID, as well as making sure our staff stay employed and get paid. 

Every penny of the membership dollars + freeze fees paid during this time will directly affect our ability to pull through this latest setback to the point of welcoming you back once again, as good as - if not better than - before. Therefore, we ask all of you who are financially-able to stick with us during this time and keep your membership (or freeze fee) going.

SHOP SMALL. SHOP LOCAL.
 
There's never been a better time to support small, locally owned businesses and we encourage all who are able to shop small, shop local. Order take-out from restaurants, tip a little extra, buy from local retail shops, purchase a gift card and/or provide a great online review.
 
Pay it forward and support our local economy. A little extra support from each of us now will mean a whole lot to the future of these businesses and our communities.
We’re all in this together! Stay safe, Washington. We’ll see you soon.

Thank you from myself and our staff.
