After almost two decades in business, Rock’n & Jam’n 2, a rock climbing gym, must close by the end of this month.

The general manager of the Centennial location, Kegan Minock, said their landlord sold the building and the new owner does not want to renew their lease.

“It’s heartbreaking. I mean, I’ve been climbing for most of my life,” Minock said. “We have to cease operations on Feb. 28.”

Minock said he started climbing at Rock’n & Jam’n 2 when he was in high school. He got his first job there in his 20s and worked his way up to general manager. He was supposed to take over the gym as an owner on March 1.

The last day people can come climb at the Centennial location is Sunday, Feb. 26. Everyone is invited to a celebration that day of the gym.
