This summer is going to be an excellent snow year and the glacier is in great shape! The camp is available to BWSC racers and other racers in the Okanagan zone according to birth years noted below. Racers must re-new their ACA membership through the club to have their liability coverage up to date by July 1st, 2017.

When: July 11th –16th Depart Kelowna 8:00AM, Tuesday, July 11th

A summer ski camp is a great start for athletes looking to get a head start on next year. Plus there is a lot to do besides skiing while in the Whistler valley. Don’t forget to bring your mountain bike and swim suit! First year U12’s (born 2007) are welcome to join the camp but should consider staying with their parents. Second year U12’s and all U14’s and U16’s may also do this or do the full camp. This year all meals at the camp are included. We have hired a professional chef to prepare hot breakfasts and dinners and bag lunches. Racers just need to bring a bag lunch for the trip to Whistler. Our first meal is dinner in Whistler on the night of July 11th.

U12 – born 2007 and 2006
U14 – born 2005 and 2004
U16 – born 2003 and 2002
