Winter is coming !
What a better way to enjoy the first ski session of the season at the Panorama Mountain Resort, one of the most famous alpine ski areas in BC! Panorama mountain can also be a great early cross country site with an amazing snow environment.
Join us for a great early season camp on fresh snow. Activities will include classic and skate sessions, wax tips, season preparation, team builders. Fun and Sport will be the most important aspect on every day, Teck-branded T-shirt and Tuque will be provided to each participant 16 and under attending the camp.
The focus for the camp is FUN, as well as time to bond with your teammates and other clubs. Athletes are expected to demonstrate respectful, supportive and inclusive behavior at all times.
Please note that staffing challenges at Panorama will prevent us from going to the high alpine ski venue that we have used in years past. We look forward to delivering a great camp this year at lower elevations.
