Whats up guys, I searched around ns and google, but couldn't really find anything. Basically I was just wondering if anyone has worked at windells, momentum, coc, etc. over the summer, and if they enjoyed it. Do they pay you? Or do you just get to stay and ski for free? I'm interested in working next summer when I'm 18. Thanks for all the help.

not if they shelter you, feed you, and let you ski. This is mainly why I asked.

At Momentum they do a dig to ride program, dig everything in the morning and ride all afternoon, definitely something to look into

nah i was just kidding momentum is just harder to get a digging job i think unless you know john smart or you've been a previous camper, everyone that was a digger last year was from bc alberta and Quebec, and all shredded and chris turpin is the head digger i believe.
windells has way more jobs for people to do and i think they can shred for free there and same with coc.
but working as a digger at momentum would be sick as hell

i hear coc is super hard to get into digging... if you dont have previous exp. digging you should try doing something else for a camp

It's literally all over the map with regards to benefits and qualifications. You have to ask each camp individually. But to answer your question: it is pretty fucking awesome.
