May long weekend is the kick off to camping season for many across Alberta including outdoor enthusiasts snapping up the 75 spots at the Rainbow Valley Campground.
The campground, in the south end of Whitemud Park just off the 119th Street bridge, opens for the season this weekend.
It s just one of a growing number of summer attractions on the Snow Valley site. The campground has been here forever, since 1961, and of course the ski hill has been here since the 30s with people walking up the hill, said Snow Valley staffer Tim Dea.
