Winter is just around the corner, and Camp Fortune in Chelsea, Quebec, is getting ready to kick off another fantastic season on the slopes. For those who missed the early bird deals in past years, now's the time to act. Whether you're looking to secure a season pass at a discount or get your kids signed up for ski school before the spots fill up, there's still time to prepare for an epic winter.
It’s no secret—winter is a big deal for families who love to ski, and at Camp Fortune, that’s especially true. Last year, the whole family hit the slopes, except for the newborn, but even our daughter started skiing at just 18 months! As a ski instructor at Camp Fortune, there’s nothing more common than hearing people on the chairlift say, "I wish I had bought my season pass in time for that huge discount," or "I missed out on getting the kids into ski school!" Well, here’s the good news: you’re still in time to do both! Snagging a season pass with nearly 30% off is an amazing deal, and the fun doesn’t stop there.

Lights, Camera, Ski!

One of the highlights of this year is the significant upgrade to the lighting across the Valley. Camp Fortune is rolling out brand-new, energy-efficient LED lights, so night skiing enthusiasts can look forward to brighter, better-lit runs. These lights will make a world of difference for anyone hitting the slopes after sunset. As for the much-loved Meech area, its lighting project is currently going through environmental approvals—so stay tuned!

Snowmaking 2.0: The Art of Winter Magic

At Camp Fortune, snowmaking isn't just a side job; it's an art. This season, they've boosted their snowmaking capabilities with new pumps and advanced tech to keep the slopes perfectly blanketed. They're even testing a European Tecno-Alpin fan gun, known for its top-notch snow coverage. On top of that, a brand-new Pisten Bully 600 snow groomer has been added to the fleet, ensuring those perfectly groomed trails that skiers love.

It’s Time to Register for School… Snow School!

Registration is now open for Camp Fortune's ski and snowboard programs. If you've been thinking about signing up, now’s the time! Reserving your spot early means you'll get the date and time that best fits your schedule, and with limited spaces, it's worth acting fast. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned pro, there are options for all levels and all ages. Spend the winter learning and improving on the slopes with top-notch instruction—snow days never looked so good!

The Perks of Early Planning

For those in the know, one of the best perks of the season is the discount on the 2024-2025 season pass. Locking in your pass before September 30th can save you up to 30%. That’s huge for families who love to hit the slopes all winter long! With those savings, you’ll have more budget for après-ski fun or upgrading your gear.

Investing in the Future of Winter Fun

It’s not just about the discounts. Over the past few years, Camp Fortune has continued to invest in making the hill a top-tier destination for local and visiting skiers. Last year’s brand-new lodge was a massive hit, and the upgrades keep coming. This season promises even more surprises in the works. Whether it’s better lighting, enhanced snowmaking, or improvements to the facilities, Camp Fortune is committed to offering an unforgettable experience.

So, the big question is, are you ready for winter at Camp Fortune? With the hill’s preparations in full swing, it’s the perfect time to plan your own. Grab your season pass, sign the kids up for ski school, and get excited for a winter of fun, fresh snow, and unforgettable memories.
