WHAT ARE WE OPENING NEXT?
We
will be opening CLUBHOUSE RUN and PROMENDADE
tomorrow (Jan 5, 2013) serviced by the West Chair, West Chalet and Parking lot
#1. Access from the east will be across the top section of Flyer through the
chute to Promenade.
Construction
of our VAULT terrain park will begin tomorrow with the plan being to open it
Tuesday January 8, 2013 at 4:30pm.
Snowmaking
weather will be minimal this week, however we plan to come back onto already
open terrain when possible to build up thin areas etc. We
will be continuing to make snow on the FLYER when we can, as well as getting
equipment onto Park Ave when possible (until now it has been open on 100%
natural snow only).
PLEASE NOTE
Tomorrow
will be the first day that we will run a race course on the west side of the Standard
Run (new course location) and Ben’s Bump together. It will be a good test run to see how everything
flows before the 8 week lesson programs fire up next week. Access to the BOWL Chair from the Main Street quad will be via the TOP of LADIES DOWNHILL.

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.

FIRST APRES SKI OF 2013:
SATURDAY, JANUARY 12
Brimacombe's first Apres Ski Party of the season is Saturday, January 12! Spend the night with friends, family - and the Stone Sparrows! Listen to live music in the warmth of the East Chalet, enjoy dinner and munchie specials in the cafeteria and, of course, a cash bar! Apres Ski begins at 3:30 p.m. and runs until 9:30 p.m.
Not only are the Apres Ski Parties on Saturday nights, but no tickets are required and no admission will be charged! Just show up & bring your family and friends!
The Stone Sparrows have combined their diverse backgrounds in funk, soul, blues, jazz, bluegrass and folk into a unique sound combining interesting twists on classic instrumental styles with soulful lyrics that feel at once comfortable, yet still fresh and unique.
