President - Jeff Archibald
I believe in the value of local climbing resources and the importance of maintaining those resources for both current and future climbers. I have been a long time Access Fund member and have enjoyed climbing at many large and small areas throughout the U.S. Having climbed in many different places, I have seen the value a small group of climbers can make in opening, or keeping open, and maintaining climbing resources. My personal goals for working on the MCA board are to help ensure continued access to the climbing resources in our area and to solicit and identify the priorities of the membership and to work toward making those priorities a reality. My work life includes working as an energy and environmental consultant for the past 25 years.
Vice President - Mick Foot
I have been an active climber for almost 20 years. My family and I moved to New Hampshire in 2000 and I have been a frequent climber at various local crags since that time. In addition to climbing regularly in the area, I have also started up several climbing clubs at local schools (while working there). This includes a middle/high school climbing club for approximately five years at Monadnock and a middle school climbing club at Winchester.
In the time that I have been here, I've seen a variety of climbing resources come and go (and come back again - or not). I applaud the MCA's focus on maintaining access to local climbing resources by forging positive relationships with the various land owners and agencies. I would be happy to be part of the MCA's mission to ensure that these relationships continue to be nurtured for the benefit of the climbing community.

At Large Board Member - Rebecca (Becky) Barrett
Born and raised in Keene, NH on a dairy farm that is now a golf course. I have always been one who enjoys being active and outdoors whether it be hiking, biking, gardening or golfing. I didn’t learn to rock climb until I was 60 years old and ice climb until I was 61. For me it is another way to challenge myself and keep the inner fire alive. I am hoping my skills as a relative newbie to the sport provides a different perspective for the board and an invitation/inspiration for more people to try something new.
