We have two NEW offerings for 2024!- We heard you! For those who don’t ski and prefer the warm(er)-weather pursuits of biking and trail running we are launching a summer membership. If you make use of the grass trail system in the Stoney Creek valley, this is the membership for you. The new summer membership runs from April 1 – September 30 of each year and the costs are: Individual – $25, Family – $50. You can purchase a summer membership here
- This year in Camrose we are piloting the Kids of Mud youth mountain biking program! Kids of Mud is the official youth cycling program offered by the Alberta Bicycle Association (ABA), Saskatchewan Cycling Association (SCA) and the Manitoba Cycling Association (MCA).
The Kids of Mud program promotes fun and skill development in a social and supportive environment. It is designed to be a complete mountain biking program for all ages of youths (5-18 yrs). The curriculum focuses on growth and participation in cycling, from the earliest stages of developing physical literacy to lifelong participation in the sport (based on Cycling Canada’s Long-Term Athlete Development approach).
This year, we are offering a pilot of the U9 “Little Rippers” program (meant for kids aged 7-9 in the 2024 calendar year). Built around the youngest riders, Little Rippers introduces the basic skills of mountain biking with minimal instruction. The focus is on letting them develop and discover through fun and games. Some of the skills covered in this program include position and mobility, shifting, braking, climbing, descending and cornering skills.
Max of 10 participants—first come, first serve! Lessons will be held at the Stoney Creek Centre on Saturday afternoons, from May 25 to June 29. You can register for the KOM program here.
The Camrose Ski Club has partnered with the Alberta Bicycle Association (ABA) so our registered members are covered under the ABA’s insurance. Fees paid to the Camrose Ski Club will include a general Camrose Ski Club membership and membership to the ABA.
