Since there is no International Tree Climbing Competition this year, New Jersey will not have a qualifying event. We’ll be running a modified event and hope to mix novice and experienced competitors together in the spirit of learning and increasing proficiency and safety of all. An overall point winner will be announced by adding the points from the Throwball, Belayed Speedclimb, Work Climb, Timed Ascent and will have bragging rights for the year. There won’t be a Master’s Challenge this year, and the Aerial Rescue portion will occur after demos at lunch, as a voluntary event with plenty of time to learn from the best and compete for time. There will be prizes for the best overall times.
Registration is open to all chapter members and the deadline to register is September 2nd. You and your employer must fill out the registration form completely. Gear check will occur on the morning of the event from 7:30-8:00 am and the events will commence at 8:30am. Bring your lunch and a cooler and please call Joe Greipp at (856) 343-7571 if you have any questions or concerns. We hope to hear from you soon.
Also, if you’re interested in competing in the inaugural inter-chapter climbing competition with the Penn-Del Chapter please let us know by registering on our website.
2021 International Tree Climbing Competition Update
With the uncertainty of future shut downs, and the continuation of travel and meeting restrictions globally ISA made the decision to not hold the 2021 International Tree Climbing Competition (ITCC). The safety of our members, competitors, volunteers, and team members remain our priority.
ISA recognizes the importance of this event, and will continue to work with our volunteers, committees, and leaders to ensure we are able to host this event successfully and safely in the future. This is consistent in our decision to host the 2021 ISA International Conference virtually, and is made early in an effort to respect the time and commitment of our competitors, volunteers, and all who make this event possible.
Regional competitions may be possible as non-qualifying events; however, ISA will make determinations at a future date if those events are able to occur this year as more data becomes available. ISA appreciates your continued support during this unique time, and we look forward to hosting these events in the future.
