What People Have Been Saying:
 

“A loose agenda and thousands of miles comprise the much sought after, yet rarely executed road trip. Everyone, at some point, dreams of doing it. Given that our inaugural Send The States trip is that dream made realized accompanied by environmental activism, if it makes someone understand how much help we need preserving and how hard we're fighting for our climbing areas, then I'll declare it a monumental success.”
- Joe Iurato, editor in chief of Urban Climber Magazine.

 

“We’re stoked to support the Send the States road trip. Our Fortress philosophy is to Get Wound Up doing the things that make life fun and a road trip always embodies this. Experiencing new places, making new friends and facing new challenges... grab life by the neck and shake it out! Now I just need to work out how to get away from the email and join the trip?”
- Andy Palmer, President and Co-Founder Fortress Watches
 
“It's easy to have dreams, it's not so easy to play them out. It's great to see the team making their dream come true - and best of all we all get to share it online, in Urban Climber Magazine and in the movie.”
- Nick Yardley, Julbo
 
“The Access Fund is psyched to be involved with Send the States. Not only are they a great group of people but the concept behind the trip is outstanding. In today's access ridden landscape it's important for climbers to be proactive and really take the lead in conserving the places they play. I hope this project underlines the importance of this to climbers across the country.”
 - Robb Shurr, The Access Fund
 
“I decided to sponsor Rory, Danielle and Meghan because what they are doing is with-in the means of the general climbing community. It demonstrates that you do not need to be a 5.14 climber to tour the country and follow your passion. All it takes is desire and passion, which they clearly encompass. I wish them the best and wish I could hop in the car with them!”
- Jeff Cunningham, Marketing Director, Mammut USA
 
"I believe that each one of you are able to promote environmental awareness in climbers and encourage them in making good ethical choices."
- Ted Beblowski, Leave No Trace State Advocate for  New York State
 
"Send The States brings The Rock Club a chance to be involved in something that just make sense.  We're a part of the climbing community and it's in our interest to support it and video is a great media to do this.  But, as much as we love climbing and bouldering videos, they generally have limited appeal to nonclimbers.  Send The States, the movie, has the potential to engage a much broader audience on several levels - not just the climbing but the trip itself, the interpersonal dynamics and the challenges.   It's also an event and an adventure.  We're excited to follow Team Send The States and offer our customers a chance to share the excitement!"
- Dave Raue, The Rock Club, New Rochelle
