this crew is our backbone.

The BlocHaven Crew is a team of boulderers, sport climbers, newbies, competition climbers, local-craggers, industry experts, and aficionados alike from across the US. Assembled together to facilitate Greenville’s blossoming climbing community, it is our goal to continue to foster excitement, conversation, and growth for individuals of all ages. 

With this in mind, BlocHaven’s Crew offers a number of educational programs and events year-round including: competitions, member nights, clinics, adult climbing leagues, youth teams, camps, and yoga classes! 

The Crew thanks you for your support and looks forward to welcoming you to the climbing community!

Doug and Teri

Meet Doug and Teri – the duo behind BlocHaven

Doug, Proprietor & Visionary, is the guy who thought, “Wouldn’t it be great to start a family business? How about a climbing gym?” When he’s not running BlocHaven, you’ll find him cycling in his beloved lycra, squeezing in climbing sessions on business trips, or reminiscing about his opera-singing days (he even married the soprano—Teri!).

Teri, our Café Manager, keeps the community fueled with real ingredients, great coffee, and plenty of snacks. A natural researcher, she loves diving deep into the “why” behind everything—whether it’s café ingredients or the latest recycling tech.

Together, they’ve built more than a gym—they’ve built a community. And yes, they really do have seven kids.

Groups & Youth Manager

🎉 Hannah Harris

The keeper of all things bookings and group events—you haven’t partied at BlocHaven until you’ve spoken to Hannah.

A Southern California native who preferred mountains over beaches, she somehow survives without coffee and seems to have more hours in her day than the rest of us.
