For those of you who follow the International Tree Climbing Competition, you will
recognize Jared, as he is the 2009 ITCC champion and the 2011 North American
Champion. He has been a regular in the ITCC finals since 2001. Jared and Gary
are very well schooled and experienced in all Tree Climbing techniques. Gary was
a perennial Western Chapter Champion before Jared finally was able to beat his
father, and extend the family legacy at the ITCC. Gary is currently
on the ITCC rules committee. He has been climbing trees since he was a boy in Hawaii, climbing for coconuts!! I am sure that all who attend will learn something new regardless of experience.
