All the Castle community mourns Felix's death in Yosemite on the 2nd of June 2013. Felix, 28, was a regular climber at The Castle and worked for a brief time in the shop (when it was run by Urban Rock). He was climbing East Buttress on El Capitan when he was hit and killed instantly by rock fall.

The Garden Boulders were officially opened at the Castle's Garden party on Sunday, 21st of July. The Dyno Comp, taking place on the West Side of The Battleship Boulder drew large crowds both in The Castle and from people passing by on Green Lanes. Many of the climbers rediscovered the old Featured Wall, in its new reincarnation as The Featured Boulder. Two of the boulders (Trackside and Battleships) have 6 circuits on them. The Boulders will be open when the centre is open (12pm weekdays, 10am weekends) and close 15 minutes before closing time or dusk (whichever is earliest).

The Castle has won another Sustainable City Award, this time in the Sustainable Food category. The award was presented at Mansion House on 19 March 2013. We were also shortlisted for Resource Conservation. We were very pleased and surprised to receive this award, especially given that we are up against other businesses that focus solely on dining and catering. This award recognises the efforts that we've put in over the past three years to minimise the environmental impact of our cafe. We've been able to make great progress with the following measures:

After weeks of waiting, the hoarding's come down, the paint has dried and the setters have done their thing.  The Comp Wall, replacing the featured wall by the cafe, opened on Monday the 8th of April. Offering the full-range of climbing- slab, steep and roof- our newest area has been very popular.

Coming soon will be a fun tunnel area next to the cafe for kids (and adults) to explore!
