The Sloopers loaded up their cars and headed to Sonoma for their first competition of the season this past weekend. With 10 competitors from the team making the journey, it was a great showing for the first outing of the year.

The competition was stout, as we all vied for space in a packed to capacity gym at Sonoma State University. There were 8 schools in attendance which speaks volumes for the rapid growth that CCS is experiencing in California!

The team came home with two ribbons, a first place finish for female Asa Palm, and a third place finish for female Laura Patton. It looks like this season will be another successful one for the Sloopers.

Aside from the competition, the Sloopers got to experience one of the best parts of CCS- meeting climbers from other schools. We were graciously hosted in a beautiful teepee not too far from campus, where climbers from several schools combined forces to assemble delicious burritos and to roast s'mores after the competition.
The season progresses rapidly, with our next competition only a week away! We will be making a very long journey up to Arcata to compete at Humboldt State's competition.
Thanks for reading!
