Welcome TransSenders! This is a monthly gathering organized after the gym's regular hours specifically for trans and non-binary folx in order to provide a safe space for them to try their hands at climbing. The schedule for this event is being worked on at the moment but the event will take place once a month on Sundays at the Midtown gym, from 6 pm to 8 pm. Please contact Cristina for specifics on this event and to get the date of the next meet.
Trans climbers of all levels and allies are welcome to find community and expand their climbing skills. Beginners are welcome!
If it’s your first time with us, please fill out a waiver and we will get you set up with gear and an introductory orientation.
When you arrive, look for the Rainbow Senders' table behind the check in desk with the rainbow rug! There are pronoun pins available and often, a group activity is available if you choose to participate. The leaders of the Rainbow Senders will be available to help you get started if it’s your first time and/or be your climbing partner if you wish.

Rainbow Senders are now receiving donations from a very kind community member! With these funds they are able to sponsor one member of the community for a one month membership. If you or someone you know needs financial assistance to be able to climb, please email them the name and contact info. They will be randomly selecting folks from their list each month as long as they are funded. It is their deepest desire to help all folks have access to climbing! They are also accepting donations to continue to grow their sponsorship programs!Shane Baron-Deutsch, one of our talented members, has created a fun design we are now featuring on some cool apparel! All purchases of items with this design benefit Rainbow Senders and TransSenders!
