Event Date
Attention all Aggies in the New York Area! Have you been interested in rock climbing but just don’t know where to start? Are you a Davis alum who misses sending routes in Rocknasium or the rock wall at the ARC? Join the New York Alumni Network for our first ever NYC Aggies Climb Night in Long Island City on Saturday, October 11th, 2025! Even if you can’t make it back to Davis for Homecoming, still celebrate with your fellow Aggies!
Don’t know how to belay? Not a problem! We’ll have top rope belayers so you can experience roped climbing for yourself. Already a seasoned climber? Bring your gear and get ready to pull hard on routes ranging from relaxed slab boulders to overhang lead climbing in the cave. Led by former climbing instructor, Zach Hom ‘23, participants can expect a night of exciting climbing with alums from all skill levels.
All Aggies and friends are welcome and make sure to wear your Aggie gear! Everyone registered for the event will get to enjoy a reduced day pass fee, free gear rentals, and pizza!
Registration deadline is Friday, October 3, at 5pm ET. Don't miss this chance to spend Homecoming with fellow UC Davis alumni in New York. RSVP to secure your spot and join us for an unforgettable climbing night in LIC! Go Ags!
