Win A Trip To The Camp Of Champions 0

March 19th, 2010

If you read the April issue, you know that we’re giving away one free session to the Camp Of Champions during our very own TransWorld session (a.k.a. Camp A), June 24-July 1, 2010. That’s right, we want to make your daydreams a reality-you could be riding Camp Of Champion’s epic glacier park with kickers, rails, boxes, and a rope tow in the heart of Whistler, B.C., Canada. What a beautiful life! We’ll be up there, too, with the TWS In Color rider crew filming for the new movie—the Forum team will also be reppin’!

All you have to do is write us describing what sort of beat situation you’re facing this summer. Are you stuck babysitting your little sister? Do you have a not-so-rad line cook job filling the void? Oh no-not summer school! How bad could it be really? We want to know. The most miserable entry as decided by the TWS staff will win. Spare no details-we can take it. Send all entries to snowmail@transworld.net, subject: Save Me From My Summer!

The winner will be announced April 5, 2010 here on twsnow.com

Details: The winner will receive a free eight-day deluxe session at Camp Of Champions including lodging, breakfast and lunch, lift tickets, coaching, and free after riding activities like skateboarding, dodgeball, and BMX.  Your flight to Vancouver is not included, all campers must be twelve or older.
