Information for Parents | Welcome to BaSE Snowboard Camps

Choosing the right camp to send your child or teenager to can prove to be a real challenge. Not only do you want the price, the activity and the timing to be right, but you also want him / her to be excited about it.

Well, chances are your child will be telling you about BaSE before you even hear about us which is a good start in the hunt of the solution to your winter mental health.

Here are some of the reasons why we think BaSE is a good choice for your family. First, we offer all-inclusive camps which mean that you don't have to ever prepare a lunch. Not only that, but you don't have to wonder if the lunch will be of adequate nutritional value. By all-inclusive, we also mean one price. Your child won’t be coming back all excited about getting these awesome pictures of him/her self for only $199. You pay once and we take care of providing the service you expect. Secondly, we guarantee a maximum ratio of 1 coach per 6 campers so everyone gets the attention needed and everyone if offered a challenging drill that will further his skills. The third reason you should consider BaSE is we take your child outside of the city, to new terrain and new challenges. We offer an experience that you will hear about over and over again….You may even hear enough praise for BaSE’s camps that you may think of joining us for an Snowboard Camp of your own.

	Canadian Association of Snowboard Instructors Each instructor working for BaSE must have a minimum of a CASI Level 2 which proves to be a certification ideal to help any rider further their skills from intermediate to advanced. Every employee is supervised by head coach JF Gingras who has a Level 3 certification and a Level 2 CASI Evaluator. These certifications allow him to keep his staff up to date in this ever-evolving industry.
	Alberta Camping Association BaSE undergoes a formal accreditation visit once every three years. A team of inspectors visits our camps to ensure we continue to meet all mandatory standards. The visitors go through a detailed checklist of all applicable standards with a BaSE representative. They also see these standards in practice through a tour of the camp during a typical day of activity.

All BaSE staff is certified in First Aid and CPR and is carefully selected based on their relevant work experience, qualifications, maturity level, reliability, enthusiasm and overall ability to provide a positive and supportive environment for our riders. All BaSE staff is over 21 years old and holds a clean driver’s abstract.
