Despite only having a few years separating Brandon and Steve from most campers; their experiences, titles and professionalism held the audience of 60 campers in silence, as the young legends discussed their careers and answered candid questions with ease and style.

“It’s an amazing opportunity to have two athletes who dominate in their discipline, come share their passion for riding with all the campers” said Shandro. Semenuk is the current leader in the FMB tour, with a recent win at the Claymore Challenge, and world cup racer Smith has also produced great results, including a win at the US Open of Mountain Biking.

 You can't put a price on the friends you make at SGC. Also, your riding improves dramatically at the camp, which is also priceless. My fourteen year old daughter is at camp right now. It is her third year going and each year has seen a marked improvement in her riding skills. I am attending my third SGC adult camp and can say that the money is well worth it considering how much better I have gotten with the help of the SGC coaches. So, the camp is cheap in terms of what you get by attending. Enough said.

 it could end up being totally worth going there with the sick giveaways everyyear, but that's a LOT of money, especially considering I have to pay a flight from Luxemburg too :/
