Roll-A-Table helps save a Mt. Everest climber:
Wednesday May 21, 1998: Under a cloudless blue sky, 19 climbers reached the
summit of Mt. Everest and 14 others were turned back. Of these 19
climbers, the first westerner and the second to reach the summit was Pasquale
Scaturro:
An "extreme business man" from Denver
Colorado. Pasquale reached the summit at an unusually early 8:50 AM!
As Pasquale was climbing down from the summit, another member of his
group "Sherman Bull" was climbing up the mountain and fell 300' to the
27,000' foot level. (Sherman suffered broken
ribs and cracked vertebrae). Pasquale constructed a stretcher out
of two Roll-A-Table®s and tent poles from his gear at Camp 2 and then
returned to use his "one of a
kind" Roll-A-Stretcher™ to rescue Sherman Bull. 
Spring 2001, Pasquale completed a successful expedition to the Summit of Mt. Everest
in support of the NFB (National Federation of the Blind) this past spring.
Camp Time® was a proud sponsor of Pasquale's recent expedition and provided six
Roll-A-Cot®s, 12 Roll-A-Table®s and 30 Roll-A-Chair®s.
Why so many Chairs we asked Pasquale?
"Because the Sherpas fought over them last time. Just imagine a full
sized chair with a comfortable back that is easy to carry to 27,000
feet!"
We agree with you Pasquale! At only 2.6 lbs, Roll-A-Chair® is the
"lightest weight" and "most portable" full-sized chair in the world!
