Can you climb?

There is a "Deal Chicken" deal going on right now for Climb Iowa.  If you haven't tried climbing, it's a lot of fun!  There are a few places in the Des Moines area to climb and I recommend giving it a shot.  You don't have to be in phenomenal shape to do it, but it does give you a great workout!  No experience is necessary! It's a lot of fun to try out with friends, or perhaps for a date-night.  Kids love it too, so you could make it a family event. 

 I'll let you check out the times of open climbing at the local locations, but it's a lot of fun to get a group together and take a class!  We did and I think the ladies agree that it was the most fun we's had in a long time!
