Important Communications Updates

The ACA has been busy preparing for the 2025-2026 season. We are constantly looking for ways to improve our communication, and have some big updates to share.

Communications page on albertaclimbing.org
We’ve added a dedicated section on our website navigation bar for Communications. We have outlined the different communication platforms we use, the purpose for each, and what you need to do to stay informed. Please take a look to stay informed.

Communications policy
We are working on formalizing our communications information into a formal policy. Stay tuned. In the meantime, member registration at 2mev.com will include a section for members to clearly understand the responsibilities for the ACA and themselves.

Discord
The ACA has been discussing how to incorporate an instant-messaging style platform into our communications for a while. Being 100% volunteer based, we’ve been careful to balance membership needs with the time commitment from our team. Our new Discord server is publicly available using this link. Feel free to download the mobile app, or use a web browser. The server will receive cross-posted announcements from the website (like this one). There are channels for each competition this season. You can enable or disable notifications for each channel. Members cannot create new posts or replies, but there is a contact section for the athlete reps and competition planning group. You can also direct message ACA managers.

We put together this short video to introduce the ACA Discord. The new Discord server augments our communications strategy, and it is important to keep your email profile up to date on 2mev.com for direct communications.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation! We expect a few growing pains and might not be able to respond to every request immediately. We’re excited to see you all at the gyms this season.
