Bring a few extra groceries on your next trip to the gym. BaseCamp is partnering with the Food Bank of Northern Nevada for a holiday food drive, with climbing passes and other rewards to say thanks.
Drop off donations at the BaseCamp front desk and check in with staff so your donation gets counted. Collection hours are 8 a.m.–9 p.m. daily. The drive ends Friday, December 11, 2026 at 4 p.m., so bring your final donations in before then.
Bring food. Get hooked up.
- 2 cans: a sticker
- 5 cans: a free day pass
- 20 cans: a T-shirt or Climb to the Top
- 25 cans: a 5-day punch pass, redeemable once
- 50 cans: a 10-day punch pass, redeemable once
It does not have to come in a can. Each food item counts toward your donation total. Staff can help with credit for higher-value items, such as baby formula.
