Nick Klug (Central Office) - Thank you Nick for coming to Lake Shore to help set up the Gerstung climbing equipment! It was nice to have help from teachers who have experience with the equipment in a school setting! Glad we were on the same page that more mats for the "what if's" was the way to go!
