Fundraiser for the Khumbu Climbing Center (KCC) with Conrad Anker and Emily Harrington at Movement Climbing + Fitness 2845 Valmont Rd. (303)443-1505

This exciting event includes a slide show, a video, and an upbeat presentation by Conrad Anker, Emily Harrington and the KCC Construction Crew. The KCC is funded by the Alex Lowe Charitable Foundation (ALCF), and all proceeds will directly enhance their efforts to support Nepalese climbers.

And here is your chance to meet The North Face athletes Daniel Woods and Matt Segal, and our Master of Ceremonies (and KCC instructor alum) the Timmy O’Neill!

It all starts with a 5 pm Tail Gate party, weather permitting. The Movement doors will open at 7 pm (keep in mind that Movement will close at 6:30 pm and re-open doors at 7 pm). $10 Tickets can be bought at the door or in advance at Movement. Pizza and beer will be served. Showtime is at 8 pm.

The Silent Auction will feature Go Pro, 2 nights at a Vail condo, private fly fishing, personal training with Movement trainers, The North Face, Petzl, Patagonia and much, much more! What a great way to support the ALCF and Alex Lowe’s legacy.

Alex Lowe was not only one of the great alpinists of his time, he was also a man who had a remarkable impact on many of the people indigenous to the high mountain regions where his expeditions took him. Alex was blessed with many unique gifts including the ability to climb the world’s most challenging peaks, and the capability to connect with, and love, the people he met in some of the most remote areas of the world. His sheer enthusiasm for adventure and compassion for the difficult lives led by these people stands as a continuing inspiration for those who knew and admired Alex.

The Alex Lowe Charitable Foundation (ALCF) is dedicated to preserving his legacy by providing direction and financial support to sustainable, community-based humanitarian programs designed to help the people who live in remote regions of the world. This foundation carries on Alex’s spirit of adventure.

Based in Bozeman, Montana, the ALCF has 501(c)(3) status and donations are tax-deductible. The Federal Tax Identification number is #81-0530042. If you can not attend the event, but would like to help, please go to the KCC website to donate.
