Me, 2500 dollars or so with spending money i feel like i just got a part rippet outa me, and years salary
 
yea i payed for camp....writing that check was wicked hard, i saved up all year for it...not i gotta get my plane ticket...and my spending money with be a rebate check from my credit card.
 
if i was gona go this year it would be outa my pocket, but its not that hard for me, i got a really wicked job that pays 300/month in the winter to do nothing but carry my cell phone (its a on call job)
 
what are you talking about...the ones here are a ton more expensive you are only paying 580 i am paying 2500...plane and all...lucky duck where are you going to camp
 
i have to pay half and part of airfare.

which is totally worth it because im going down to a second winter for 2-3 weeks
 
ha...not for me they gave me 900 but i got lucky my dad is a pilot so the airfair was free but i saved up 2500 bucks since last june so i got a little bit over
 
IN zermatt switzerland. Its a pretty good camp with good pros sponsored buy armada and some high guy at 9ward will be there to
 
^nd btw there are way cheaper camps in europe I just saw one for only 280 euro in les 2alpes, france.
 
me! about £700/1200$ to go to saas fee camp in switzerland, all my money been saving up since october
 
Why would you go to camp? It's so much more fun to just go sleep at the mountain and buy day tickets and just cruz around with friends. It's way cheaper and I gurantee you will meet just as many if not more pros that way. I usually spent about $200 for a week of skiing and tha includes gas, lift tickets, and food. Camps seem like a total rip off if you ask me.
 
i have to pay 1/3 of it all, or a little more then half of camp. 880 total. that plus 1600 for car insurance next years season pass to killy/snow for 420 and the new puffy i just bought for 145 im just about broke. startin to work this nxt weekend make like 200 a week put the first1 100 into my poker account and win a bit and ill be all good. life costs too much, wayyyyy too much
 
True, although my camp is cheaper than doing it ur way! But the thing is will u learn as much as people do at camp?
 
same here. i havent had an opportunity yet, but i know they would be shady about it. i think they would end up letting me though.

do you guys go out to camps with friends? i think itd be so fun to fly out with some buddies
 
if i ever wanted to go to a camp it would mean not going to college for a year. all you rich people out there who get it paid for, you better appreciate what you have.
 
Two weeks = 3300

Airfare = 400

I get to pay. All of us have the ambition of becoming diggers so we can go for free. Then we can sleep on the floor in groups of 5, work our asses off, and survive on nothing but ramen noodles and table scraps all summer. Its still worth it though.
 
I had the choice of either going to the University of Vermont (30 grand a year). Or go to Plattsburgh for free (scholarship) and be able to afford ski camp in the summer.
 
Haha, what are you like 12. Just tell them they are all about adult supervision there and make you go to bed at like 10 everynight.
 
y is it a joke to save for a year?? it took me almost a year cuz i got to college full time and have to pay all my bills like credit card, car insurance, cell phone. then i got to buy my seasons pass, and have spending money. all while workin 30 hours a week and keeping a 3.0 GPA and doing 100 community service hours a sesmter not to lose any of my scholarships...i was so excited i could save up 2000 in one year, i never thought it was possible.

i dont know how many pep on here gotta pay for everything themselves, so i donno who else understand where i am coming from
 
You guys should really consider coming to Europe for summer ski camps. They cost from 300 to 700 plus you get to know a new country, meet new people from other countries, discover new mountains and resorts... A plane ticket to europe is probably 1000 or so, so for the same price or less you are doin the same but in europe!
 
i have to pay airfare, spendiong money, and 25% of the camp cost, but my parents pay the rest...hopefully its worth it
 
I don't pay.

Well I pay about 25 bucks per night b/c thats the price of the appartment. But yeah I'm just there to support the camps and have a good time.

and I got such a sweet deal on the season pass I can ride till November with this.
 
Because in Zermatt a day ticket costs 50 bucks per day and there's no week deal, only a group deal and for that u need camp.
 
My parents are alright, they pay for camp and plane tickets, then I work and pay back as much as I can minus spending money.
 
ha ha you wack kids. blowing waaaaaay too much money to go hit a park for a week.

i ski all summer long for free. you fibnd some big summer snowfields in the mountains, build some huge booters/rails/etc and hit it for as long as you want.

and dont give me that shit of "well i dont live there". well, then take the money youre going to blow on summer camp, road trip to the mountains of CO, WY, MT, CA, WA, or ID and do what you want, when you want. much better than camp.
 
the coaches thing is the only thing you cant get my way. if you want that, get drunk and harass some pros at the next x games.

but seriously, roll up and have a barbecue with like fifty of your best friends and get drunk and hit your summer shit, it's the primo. better than camp ever could be.
 
i go to high cascade snowboard camp, and i have to pay for the camp. luckily my parents bought me a plane ticket. camp is so expensive, but most definitely worth it.
