EVENT: Learn with Alpine Rescue Canterbury.
"What to do when things go wrong, with what you've got in your pack". Join the team from Alpine Rescue Canterbury for our 'hands-on' workshop fundraiser!
Alpine Rescue Canterbury (or ARC for short) is a fully volunteer-based (and highly skilled!) team of climbers, mountaineers, instructors, guides, paramedics and doctors ready 24/7 to attend rescues that require their specialist skills in the Canterbury Region.
So, to help them raise the funds they need to keep supporting the Canterbury climbing community, we're getting them in-store to teach you how to stay safe and get out of trouble in the mountains with what you already have in your pack!
It's gonna be a great night filled with information and coming together to keep the climbing community safe in the mountains - through learning new skills and supporting ARC!
We can't wait to see ya there!
Here are the deets:
When: Monday, 2nd December 2024.
Where: Further Faster, 57A Buchan St, Sydenham, Christchurch.
What: Bring your pack or ropes to learn hands on safety and rescue skills with gear you already own.
Time: Doors open at 6.15 pm for a 6.30 pm start. We aim to be done by 8.30 pm with time to socialise at the end.

The ARC crew volunteer their time because of their connection to the mountains and the climbing community. It's important for them that people in need get the most efficient and safe rescue possible, without expecting anything in return. This means that for any rescue gear, clothing or training they rely on external donations.
This is a great fundraiser for an amazing crew - so please come, support and have fun!
