Below is a letter from the Roxx Youth Club chairman Iain Bain Feel free to share. Dear Parents/Carers, With the unfortunate closing of Spireroxx and the closing of the kids clubs a group of parents are looking to try and keep the momentum for youth climbing in moray going. We are in the process of setting up a parent led club - it’s early days but we have a Facebook group set up called Moray Coast Youth Climbers where developments/news/info will be shared. Please go like it and keep yourselves in the loop. https://www.facebook.com/moraycoastyouthclimbing/ If anyone has any questions or ideas feel free to drop me an email iainbain@mac.com Thanks Iain

Last youth club climb. Thank you for our lovely gifts. You guys are the next instructors. Keep climbing. X
