Here's what I got in an email from Julia Smart, the office manager from momentum:
Dear Ian and Kathy
It
is with great regret that I have to write to you to let you know that
Whistler/Blackcomb have recently decided to postpone the opening of the
summer skiing, which means we are not able to operate our 1st session
as planned this year. The tough economic times and drop in visitors to
the resort this winter has meant that they have unexpectedly had to cut
back on their summer operation costs.
As
you can imagine we are very disappointed with this decision, but our
hands are tied. Is there any way you could attend session 2, 3 or 4
instead this summer? Let us know if that is possible and whether you
have already made flight arrangements.
Best wishes
Julia
Ive been going to camp the past 3 summers and I know Julia and shes not the type of person to lie about stuff so im assuming what she told me is true. I know that COC usually starts a bit later than momentum so it probly didn't affect them, but it definitely pushes back the start for momentum

You know here's one point to add for the parents out there...
"Should you need medical attention you can be
reassured that Whistler, as North America's # 1 Ski resort, offers the very
best emergency care"
Momentum/COC have a great medical facility and evacuation in the case of an injury... not saying either is better, but its something to think about vs. the other camps.

Actually all the camps are exactly the same in that respect, I'm positive. All the Whistler camps, like the Dave Murray camp, COC, Momentum, etc., use the exact same medical clinic if someone is injured, because there's only one medical clinic. The camps aren't the ones providing the evacuation from the mountain, it's the Whistler Blackcomb Company, so all camps use the exact same evacuation methods as well.
