Sweet Says.... watching a variety of bands and getting freebies are surely fantastic enough to contribute in supporting your country. Know what a Magnesium Carbonate is for from a climber's point of view. Get your belayer say "Climb on!" If you think this is pretty cool, then LET'S ROCK NOVEMBER!!!

Fundraising for The Philippine National Climbing Team

In November 2011, Sport Climbing will be included as a medal sport in the Southeast Asian Games (SEAGames) for the very first time. 

The Sports Climbing Association of the Philippines (SCAPI), selected 13 strong and well-positioned athletes to bring home medals in the 2011 SEAGames which will be held in Palembang, Indonesia. This will be the 13th year wherein Filipino climbers will proudly wave the Philippine flag for the country's honor in the international climbing scene. It will be a shame not to be able to send these 13 athletes to compete in this year's SEAGames.

SCAPI seeks financial support for the Philippine National Climbing Team (PNCT). Financial aid and support in the form of services or products are welcome to help in sending these athletes to the said competition.

This October 2011, one of the many fundraising activities to support PNCT will be a Rock Trip 101 in Wawa, Montalban, Rizal. I will be posting more updates here, so stay tuned!

In the meantime, for more information or details, or for those who would like to help in being or in finding support or sponsors, kindly: email: fundpnct@gmail.com.

Sweet Says... being proud is not just by watching them finish the game on TV, but also in supporting our athletes and taking part in contributing to our country's success in the coming SEAGames. Let's make it happen!
