Ibex west is coming along; slowly, but coming along. I want to make this gym a climber’s dream — a climbing gym for climbers. I want nothing but the best for people who come in and climb. Safety is big on my list, too.  I want to make sure I am picking the right everything for the gym and the climbers.

Do you have an opening date yet?

Well last time I gave one, I jinxed myself with getting the right permits and missed it.  So, I am not telling anyone a date until I get these last few things taken care of.


Get to know Kat in 15 seconds:

Meet Kat Whistance Super MomWhat were you looking at the last time you said, “Wow, now that is awesome!”  Saturday night when my family was all on the couch watching Sporting KC game together.

What were you looking at the last time you said, “There is no way I’m cleaning that up!”  Well, I am a mother of 4 and own a climbing gym..I can never say that. I have cleaned up a LOT of stuff.

A perfect relaxation session includes: Sitting at my kitchen table before all the kids get up with my cup of coffee and just being with myself and thoughts before the day starts.
