THE NEWS YOU HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR!
In the fall of 2011, we announced our commitment to purchase a new
chairlift with a goal of installing it in the Standard area during the
summer of 2012.
We asked you to support our efforts by supporting Brimacombe and everything we have to offer.
We reminded you that “every dollar spent here, stays here” and goes
directly back into the facilities, and you – our members and guests -
showed us that you support our commitment by supporting your club!
It’s no secret that the 2011/12 season was a tough one weather wise,
but in our 75 years of history we have seen our share of challenges,
while continuing to keep our focus on the future and striving to meet
our expansion and facility improvement goals. With your continued
support and our commitment to grow our club successfully into the
future, we have decided to make this chairlift a reality and install it
this summer!
We did this with your support!
The enthusiasm and support of our members and guests is what has made
the Oshawa Ski Club, now Brimacombe, so amazing these past 75 years. On
behalf of your Board of Directors and Management Team, thank you so
much for the interest and support you have shown for this project, which
is now set to break ground in the coming months.
Our new lift…
After working through a long process of analysis and discussion we
have decided to contract Leitner-Poma Canada Inc. to build and install
our new lift. This new fourth chairlift will be a fixed-grip,
four-person chair with a special twist!
In order to increase uphill efficiency and reduce the challenges to
new skiers and snowboarders we have opted to install an automatic Compac
Loading Conveyor!
Loading conveyors are relatively new on the market and very few
resorts in Ontario can lay claim to having a system like this to improve
the experience of loading a fixed grip lift. Loading conveyors offer
all of the ease of loading of a detachable chairlift making the
experience ideal for everyone from beginner to expert, while reducing
slowdowns and stops originating in the load area.
The lift will travel from the bottom east side of the Standard run
and off-load between the Standard and Bowl chairlifts. This will allow
easy access from all of our eastern terrain at the bottom, while
servicing all terrain from the Standard run east at the top, with easy
access to Ladies' Downhill, Ben’s Bump and Bowl!
This new lift will greatly improve overall flow and uphill capacity
in this area getting you to where you want to be sooner, on the slopes!
Thank you!
Investments like this new chair keep Brimacombe an exciting and fun
place to ski and snowboard, but, most importantly, they help to ensure
we are sustainable for years to come by maintaining a modern
infrastructure. We are dedicated to providing the quality of facilities
you have become used to over the past 75 years, and with your continued
support we will continue to build a strong future for your club.
Have a great summer!

THAT'S ALL FOLKS!
It was a winter that wasn't much of a winter but we made the best of it and enjoyed our time here at the Brim and we hope that you did too. Over our 75 years of history as a ski club there have been a few that have been particularly challenging due to the weather, and this season was no exception. That being said, the majority of seasons have been ripe with snow and cold temperatures...what I'm trying to say is don't let this year get you down good years follow poor ones.
We had an AWESOME last day on the slopes...we ended it as we have for the last number of years...with a SPLASH!
Here are some pictures of today's PUDDLE JUMP event.
Freddy R dances it up before the event.

It’s an exciting time here at Brimacombe!Not only are we celebrating the 75th Anniversary of the founding of the Oshawa Ski Club, but the financial success of the past couple seasons has also allowed your Management Team and Board of Directors to move ahead with growth plans for your Club’s future success.
As a first step in this long-term plan, we have committed to the purchase and installation of a new fourth chairlift to be installed in the Standard run area. Our goal is to install the new chair as soon as this coming Summer 2012, but we need your help to ensure we meet this goal. The approximate cost of a new quad chair is $1.6 million. We have already saved about $1 million towards this project, and only need to earn the additional $600,000 this winter to make a new chair a reality this coming summer. We can do this with your support!
You’ve probably heard us say it before, but in case you haven’t I’ll say it again, “Every dollar spent here, stays here!” As a not-for-profit ski and snowboard area, every dollar you spend on-site at Brimacombe is invested back into the facility, contributing to projects such as our new chairlift. It makes supporting your facility easy, and in fact most of you have been doing it already!
Let’s work together to raise the remaining funds and secure a new chairlift by Summer 2012.
Here are four easy ways you can help:
1. Bring someone new to BrimacombeDo you know someone who would love skiing or snowboarding at Brimacombe? Take the initiative and invite them to try our slopes. Not only could you gain a new ski buddy, but every rental, lift ticket and membership sold also contributes to the purchase of our new chairlift.
2. Shop at Brimacombe’s Slopeside Retail StoreThe next time you’re shopping for equipment, apparel and accessories, visit Brimacombe’s Slopeside Retail Store with one location only, conveniently located at the base of Brimacombe. Not only will you discover excellent selection and competitive pricing, but every hard-earned dollar you spend will also support the installation of our new chairlift. No other shop can do that, because Brimacombe does not operate a store in the hamlet of Kirby, Oshawa or any other town!
3. Book a lessonIs there someone you know who wants to learn to ski or snowboard, or could you yourself use a refresher? Not only will a lesson increase the likelihood that a new skier or snowboarder will stick with the sport, but every lesson booked at Brimacombe’s award winning Snow School will also contribute dollars towards our new chairlift!
4. Treat yourself to lunchTake advantage of Brimacombe’s on-site food services at the East and West Chalets, as well as the Snack Hut at the top of Standard. Every food and beverage purchase helps raise funds for our new chairlift and meet our goal to have it installed by Summer 2012.
The enthusiasm and support of our members is what has made the Oshawa Ski Club, now Brimacombe, so amazing these past 75 years. On behalf of your Board of Directors and Management Team, thank you so much for your continued support this season as we continue to grow and work together to raise funds to meet our goal of installing a new chairlift by the coming Summer 2012.
