December 2021/ January 2022 Update
Big thank you to Yukonstruct! Charles Kalinsky represented Climb Yukon in the 3 month Yukonstruct Business Bootcamp (https://www.yukonstruct.com/service/startup-bootcamp-3/). That culminated with a Demo Day, November 30, where each entrepreneur gave a passionate pitch of their business idea.
Climb Yukon wants to give a big thank you to the team at Yukonstruct, including but not limited to Lana Selbee, Chin Chang, Cat Kelly, Chaofeng Zhang, and Kalin Pallett. Thank you to all our amazing guest speakers and their inspiring stories. I am deeply appreciative of all those entrepreneurs who participated in the 12 weeks program. Good luck with your incredible projects and thank you for the inspiration with all your hard work!
Also at the end of the year, Climb Yukon was awarded a Community Development Fund (CDF). We will use this funding to create a Project Manager term position to support the Pre-Operational plans for the future climbing facility. The job competition was open for one month, December 13, 2021 to January 16, 2022. We were blown away by the number of strong and competitive applications! The excitement in the community to want to bring this project to fruition is palpable.
The PM position is one aspect of the project, but there are lots of steps between here and a gym. There will be many ways you can be involved. We will be holding our Annual General Meeting (AGM) this spring. We are always looking for help with our committees, including programming, membership, grant writing, fundraising, etc.
Big thank you to the 22 candidates who applied! We appreciate the time you put into your application. We will be reviewing and interviewing applicants in the next few weeks. Expect to hear from us soon.
