'It's great for the parents to get a little break from the kids but also know that the kids are in good hands and getting active and it's also great for the kids as well. Climbing is an activity that builds a lot of self-confidence in your body, helps you learn how to move and operate within the world,' said Chris Rosato Jr., general manager of ASCEND Erie.
No experience is necessary for the camps. Financial assistance is also available.

Stillwater News Press to hold open house for new location
On Thursday, Stillwater News Press will host an open house to the public. The open house will take place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the News Press building located at 502 S. Duck Street. The open house will take place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. The building is new to the press but not to Stillwater. Built in 1908, the 2,900-square-foot building was originally a home before hosting many commercial interests. Known locally as the Berry House, it was built by James. E. Berry, who would go on to serve at Lt. Governor. It was entered into the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. The modern day Stillwater News Press is a successor of the merger of many other newspapers. The News Press dates back to the weekly Stillwater Advance as well as the Stillwater Daily Democrat. Stillwater Advance was established in 1892, 15 years before Oklahoma became an official state. Stillwater Advance held up against other newspaper competitors. Adding to the early success, I.O. Diggs purchased the Daily Democrat and combined the two papers, which gained much traction. Shortly after, Diggs sold the papers and migrated west to California. One of Diggs' successors was G.R. Gould, the father of "Dick Tracy" creator Chester Gould. After three different purchases of the paper after Diggs, the name was changed from Stillwater Advance to Payne County News. After an ownership change once again, in 1929 E.E 'Hook' Johnson became the new publisher of the paper. C.R. Bellatti and R.M. Bellatti became part owners. The Bellattis and Johnson combined the Stillwater Daily press and the Stillwater Daily news to make what is now Stillwater News Press. C.R. Bellatti was the publisher of Stillwater News Press for a long period. The Bellatti family was dedicated to pushing out news to the north-central part of the state for many years. The Bellatti Family had much success for over 50 years. In 1997, Stillwater News Press was sold by the Bellatti family to Community Newspaper Holdings Inc., a local news provider in 1997. Currently owned by CNHI, Stillwater News Press continues to carry on the legacy and history that transformed the way the north-central part of Oklahoma receives news today. Moving into a new location brings new adventure and opportunities to continue to tell stories of greatness and allows the community to be a part of a rich story that continues on throughout many generations.

Erie leaders discuss CRIZ at annual Knowledge Breakfast 'Basically what they do is they take the truck, strip it down, build a metal frame on it, spray foam it and once they spray foam it they sand it down and put a hard coat paint job on it and finish it with all these little details,' said Tucker Van Dusen, experiential marketing specialist. 'You just see the jaws dropping on the side of the road when people are walking by or they see us in their vehicles.
