Twin Cities – Summer Camp

Go Ahead. Climb Up the Walls.

MBP Summer Camp is geared toward youth ages 5-12 and offers plenty of climbing and social time.

Each week’s session runs daily from 9am – 2pm with options for Extended Day available. Whether your child is an experienced climber or brand new to bouldering, they will have a blast with our MBP instructors leading the way. Campers will learn basic climbing techniques, terminology, and play games on and off the wall. Kids will also participate in activities related to the theme of the week.

"My climber had a fantastic time and his counselors seemed amazing - fun, mature, compassionate. The facility is lovely."

Youth Rules and Expectations

Climbing is an exciting and fun sport—but it does come with risks. We insist on highly-attentive adult supervision to mitigate these risks for youth and other climbers. Before climbing with us, please read through our Rules and Expectations.

  1. Youth under the age of 14 must be closely accompanied by an adult at all times.
  2.  Our supervision ratio is 2 to 1; up to 2 youth climbers can be supervised by 1 adult chaperone at a time.
  3. Stay far from the walls and out of fall zones when moving through the gym or waiting to climb. A “fall zone” is anywhere on the mats where a climber could land if they were to fall. 
  4. Make sure to check where a route ends before starting to climb–some routes are close together or even overlap, and you don’t want to end up directly above, below, or next to another climber. 
  5. This is a climbing gym! Please save running, wrestling, horseplay, and gymnastics for other spaces. 

Due to programming, the youth room is unavailable on certain days and times each week. When not in use for programming, the Youth Room is open and available for you to enjoy! To stay in the know, check out our Youth Room highlight on Instagram.

In general, the Youth Room is unavailable during the following times:

  • Weekdays from 4 PM – 6PM
  • Weekends from 9:00 AM – 12:30 PM
  • When Adventure Days & Weeks are occurring
  • When a private birthday event is booked (often occurring on Saturdays and Sundays: 12:30 PM – 2:30 PM, 3 PM – 5 PM)

Have questions about climbing, the facility, or risk? Ask our staff—we are here to help.
