It looks even better in person, but here are a few shots taken just moments before I sat down to write this blog....the groomers are still spreading the newly made snow in these pictures and will begin the "final" groom next.
As I always like to point out, you may not have snow on your front lawn, but we still have snow on ours here at the Brim!
We plan to have the following open for Day and Night skiing beginning WEDNESDAY JAN 15, 2013;
BUNNY BLVD.
STANDARD
BAMBI
LADIES DOWNHILL
BEN'S BUMP
and the
VAULT Terrain Park
serviced by the MAIN STREET and BOWL chairs and MAGIC CARPET conveyor lift.

Brimacombe is pleased to be taking part in a pilot safety initiative called PACE PENGUIN.
The objective of this program is to help reduce the risk of injury to young children in downhill sports by educating children, parents and fellow skiers/snowboarders.
This program is designed to not only address several of the known risk factors for children, but contribute to an overall positive experience for families. Early research indicates the PACE program has outstanding positive influence on parents’ resort selection. By helping children to have a safe and fun experience, we hope that today’s "little penguins" will grow into safe, dedicated life-long skiers and snowboarders, who will in turn, introduce their children to downhill sports.

A special THANK-YOU to the Brimacombe Volunteer Ski Patrol for their assistance in implementing this program.
