Just wanted to give a big report on the Zenith Climbing Gym on east Sunshine in Springfield Missouri.

Rates were good.  They taught us for about 1.5 hours with 2 instructors on Belaying and climbing and knots and the boys and girls got to climb up about 50 feet as many times as they wanted to with an adult belayer.  Boys and Girls 14 and older can belay.  Younger folk can only belay with a adult holding the same line as the person belaying. 

We had a good time.  Our group of 8  2x(4 students and one instructor for $50.00)did real well with 3 leaders looking on.  Thanks to David Julian and Rob Batchman for running backup.
