COMMUNITY EVENTS
Building Traditions That Last.
Summit Forge is being designed to be more than a climbing gym. These are our planned signature community event concepts — future annual traditions that celebrate the people who serve and protect Central Minnesota.
Note: All events described on this page are future concepts and plans. No events have occurred yet, and no sponsors or partners are confirmed. These are our vision for what Summit Forge can become.

Guns & Hoses
Police vs. Fire Department Climbing Competition
The Guns & Hoses Championship is a planned annual climbing competition concept that would pit local police departments against fire departments in a head-to-head team climbing challenge. This event concept is designed to celebrate the brave men and women who serve our community — turning their competitive spirit into something the whole community can cheer for.

Sirens & Scrubs
EMS vs. Healthcare Climbing Competition
The Sirens & Scrubs Championship is a planned concept event honoring the EMS workers, nurses, doctors, and healthcare heroes of Central Minnesota. This future annual event concept would bring together the two groups who keep our community healthy — competing side by side on the climbing wall for community pride and bragging rights.
Planned Youth & Community Events
Beyond our signature service events, Summit Forge is being planned as a hub for youth competition, community fundraising, and seasonal events — all future concepts we're working toward.
Future Youth Competitions
Planned youth climbing competitions for kids and teens across Central Minnesota, with age-group divisions and a fun, encouraging atmosphere.
Future School Challenge Series
A concept school-vs-school climbing challenge event to bring healthy competition and fitness to the youth of Sartell, St. Cloud, Sauk Rapids, and surrounding communities.
Future Charity Climb Events
Planned annual charity climb-a-thon events where participants fundraise for local causes while competing on the climbing wall.
Future Seasonal Events
Concept seasonal community events throughout the year — from beginner-friendly fun competitions to more advanced open climbing challenges.
Planned Sponsorship Opportunities
Once Summit Forge opens, we plan to offer businesses and organizations the opportunity to sponsor our signature community events. Sponsorship concepts include event naming rights, signage, team gear, and community recognition — all future plans that will be finalized as we get closer to opening.
