Will's new class

Will was ready to try something new instead of just doing training workouts for football so we checked out the classes at our local recreation center and found climbing classes! He thought it would be fun so we signed him up for a months worth! Here he is tying his own rope!
Then he was off! The class was for 2 hours every Saturday and each week he would reach the top several times, but he also learned the different terms the climbers use like "take" when you get tired. He would say that and the person below would make the line tight and hold him so he could rest a minute.
It's a great challenge for him and he really enjoys it!
This is a better shot of just how tall this was!
Once he rang the bell it was time to come down! That's the funnest part!
He made it!
Way to go Will! Keep up the good work!
