Another day in PARADISE


What an AWESOME day at the Brim today! The second grooming of brand new man made snow always takes the conditions to the next level and everyone I spoke to was loving it! There is no better way to describe a day on the slopes than to show you in photos....so here they are,

The racing action was hot today as we hosted a number of other clubs from across Ontario on our Standard run course.


Our NEW Quad Chairlift with Loading conveyor has virtually eliminated any long wait times on our east side


The ease of loading keeps the traffic flowing

To our Valued Members,

This is to inform you of the recent operational changes taking place at your club, effective Monday, February 4th, 2013.

Being a seasonal business, we do our best to roll with the punches when Mother Nature decides to stiff us for a day or two. With the ever-changing weather conditions, current labour disputes resulting in reduced revenue this season, we’ve made the decision to alter our terrain and lift-ticket prices to reflect our offerings and attract more visitors.

Weekday Changes are as Follows:

-TUESDAY TO FRIDAY WE WILL OPEN TERRAIN FROM PARK AVENUE TO FLYER ONLY ( Conditions permitting. Same terrain as available for night skiing will be available for day skiing).
-GATE 1, the WEST CHALET, the WEST CHAIR and TERRAIN WEST OF THE FLYER WILL NOT BE OPEN DURING MID-WEEK DAYS.
-ALL MID WEEK DAY TIME LIFT TICKETS WILL BE $20 taxes inc.
  
While we understand this may not be appeasing news, we feel that adjusting our weekday rates and facility operations is a step forward in ensuring a bright future for our club, and we appreciate your understanding as we make these changes.
