Call to Action: Stop the Comp or Else Resign!

Touchstone Climbing is moving forward with their plans to host a climbing competition at Union gyms in So Cal, while Route Setters are on strike. Touchstone doesn’t seem to have any qualms about asking their staff and management to cross picket lines, undermine strikes, and work as scabs. It has been requested that if Touchstone continues down this disgusting and disrespectful course, members and supporters will ask for the resignation of Mark Melvin as CEO and Justin Alarcon as Director of Route Setting.

Justin Alarcon: justin@touchstoneclimbing.com

Route Setters have begun stepping forward with affidavits and testimonies of Touchstone’s history of disempowering Route Setters and suppressing calls for better conditions and better wages. More to be revealed, but first STOP THE COMP!
