UPDATE: this meeting has been postponed.

More details on the reschedule date coming soon. Save the date: the CCC's Annual Public Meeting is happening October 2nd in Banner Elk, NC. Join the CCC Board, staff, and volunteers for our annual public meeting on Friday October 2nd, the evening before the Hound Ears bouldering comp. This meeting is open to everyone, no comp registration needed. We want to see your face and hear what's on your mind. We'll cover project updates and program wins from the last few months, look ahead at what's coming, and award this year's Kayah Gaydish Stewardship Awards. Then we'll open things up with topic-based breakout stations where you can talk directly with CCC reps about the issues you care about most, plus an interactive map board where you can drop questions, suggestions, praise, or grievances about climbing areas on our radar. Free to attend, beer, food trucks, and Mellow Mushroom pizza will be available! When: October 2nd, 2026, 7:00–8:30 PM Where: Foscoe Community Center at Grandfather Campground, 233 Park Rd, Banner Elk, NC 28604 Learn more and sign up: carolinaclimbers.org/events 📸 Lower Ghost Town Access Celebration April 2026
