RMDP Uses 3 Buildings for the camp. The Jasper Activity Centre (JAC), the Jasper High School and the Jasper Elementary School.  All three buildings are on the same block and do not require the dancers to cross any roads to access them.

JAC

This is the main building and where dancer registration and pick up occurs at the start and end of the camp. The main hall is used as one of the dance studios for classes, as well as where most evening activities occur and all meals are eaten here. This building also houses the gymnastics center where the acro classes are held and some of the dorm rooms which are in a private basement area, some of these rooms have bunk beds. There are also dorm rooms upstairs in this building.

Jasper High School

This is a brand-new building approx. 200m from the JAC. There is a very large gymnasium used for dance classes as well as some dorm rooms in this building. These dorm rooms are in emptied out classrooms with the foam mats provided to dancers if they wish to use them.

Elementary School

This building is used for dance classes only and is approx. 200m walking distance from the JAC across the main field.

Each dorm room holds approx. 10-25 kids with volunteer dorm parents assigned each room. If a room is larger there will be multiple dorm parents assigned to one dorm room.

Dorm parents must complete a background check and submit prior to camp to ensure your child’s safety and we hire a night shift security guard every single night.

The JAC and High School provide thick 4” foam mats for the dorm rooms. Some rooms have bunks; others will make their beds on the floor. Dancers may bring their own air mattresses, pads etc. as well as their own bedding.

NEW! Edmonton to Jasper Shuttle Bus

Do you need a ride?

If you can get to Edmonton, Showtime will give you one for a small fee. This year we are trying out a shuttle bus that will take dancers and dorm parents from Edmonton to Jasper on Sunday and return them back to Edmonton on Friday. We have reserved an ultimate bus that includes leather bucket seats and flat screen TVs! This might save you from having to make multiple trips back and forth to Jasper to drop your dancers off for the week.

• Cost: One-Way Trip: $25/person 
• Return Trip: $45/person 

If you’re interested in using our Shuttle this year, please contact us [email protected] or 1 (250) 768-7202.
