Reaching new heights Local student, Dale Verge, ascends the Conrad Kain climbing wall located in the J.A Laird Elementary School gymnasium. The climbing wall is a labour of love for elementary school teacher, and qualified climbing instructor, Herb Weller. The wall is open to the public from Friday-Saturday, 5 - 8 p.m., or by appointment by calling 250-342-9413 or e-mailing hcweller@telus.net. The drop-in cost is only $5.00 to use the wall, and all equipment is provided. Rock climbing has many health benefits, as it increases your upper body strength, particularly in the lats, forearms, biceps and shoulders. It also strengthens your core strength, improves flexibility and has some cardiovascular benefits as well.
