2023 NSTCC
Professional tree climbing competitions are held around the world to provide a platform for arborists to learn about the latest in climbing techniques and innovations in equipment. They showcase the highest level of professional skills and safety, providing a competitive learning environment for those working in the industry.
The competitions simulate working conditions of arborists in the field. Competitors perform five different events during preliminary rounds. Each event tests a competitor’s ability to professionally and safely maneuver in a tree while performing work-related tree-care tasks in a timely manner.
Competitive tree climbing also introduces the public to the skills professional tree climbing arborists must use for safe, professional tree work.
The Natural State Tree Climbing Competition was be held May 6-7, 2023 at Hendrix College in Conway.
New this year-Tree Walk- May 6, 10am- The Conway Tree Board and Dr. David Sutherland, Hendrix Associate Provost & Professor of Mathematics, will lead a guided walk to view and identify some of the beautiful trees on campus.
