What's New at ROCK'n & JAM'n?

Whew... after several grueling months of preparation and one long laborious weekend, the dust has finally settled. We are now up and running on our new software and hardware and have some beautiful new landing zone areas at RJ1 and RJ2. As with any system migration, there were a few "bumps" in the road, but all wheels are still on. We went live on September 4th without any show-stopping issues.  Our new system enables a more streamlined check-in process in turn providing quicker and better customer service.

 

Yea!! Now maybe I'll finally be able to catchup on some sleep...

Check it out...
New  Waiver Stations!

 

If you haven't filled out a new waiver,  it's easier than ever!

 Just complete a form on one of our new waiver stations.

Just to reiterate, here are the reasons that we need EVERYONE to fill out a new waiver...

 

1) In order to take full advantage of the features of our new software, we were required to merge our RJ1, RJ2, and Outdoor waivers into a single document. This means that you will no longer need to sign multiple waivers if you want to climb at both RJ1 and RJ2.

 

2) Since we are migrating the database, this is a great opportunity to ensure that we have accurate data as we move forward.

 

3) We've adopted the industry standard that requires everyone to sign a new waiver each year.
