Even MORE SNOW!

What a pleasant surprise to wake up to MORE SNOW than forecast....I'm  not sure what the cities received but we got another 5 or so inches of quality packing snow which will make this weekend one of the best opportunities to ski or snowboard at BRIMACOMBE all year (and it's been great so far)!

Here are some shots from around the hill this morning (Feb 28, 2013)...what a beautiful place we have here.

Will March come in like a Lamb or a Lion? It's been another day in PARADISE,

Cheers,

Mark

Interested in Ski Racing next season?

The Brimacombe Racing Club will be conducting a 3 day “Introduction to racing“ program for children ages 7 > 10 years of age; March 9th ,10th & 11th , 9AM – 2:30 PM 

(this program is not for current race club members)

The goal of the Brimacombe Ski Racing Club is to provide a solid foundation and knowledge base upon which to build children’s athletic abilities and encourage the development of skiers and ski racers of all ability levels in a fun and rewarding environment. The Brimacombe Racing Club is aligned with Alpine Ontario South.

All coaches are certified by the Canadian Ski Coaches Federation and many are also certified by the Canadian Ski Instructors Association. .

Benefits of our race program

Children who are physically educated feel confident and are encouraged to continue to build on these skills through competitive and recreational sport activity. They will enjoy overall health benefits by developing greater physical literacy, which encourages them to be more physically active throughout their lives. Skiing is a life-long sport that is practiced by people of every age, shape, size and level of ability. But skiing skills are not the only benefits of our ski program. In addition children will learn: Ski Safety – Listening skills – Building self confidence – Goal setting

The cost is $110.00 & the camp will include:

o 13.5 hours of instruction with a focus on ski improvement

o Training runs daily in a course set on the Standard run

o Timed runs on the final day

Note: Helmets are mandatory

 Payment is due with registration & waiver must be signed.

 Lift tickets are not included

 This is not a “learn to ski” program & assumes children have basic skills

 Coaches do not supervise children during lunch period.

SNOW DAY!

WE GOT IT! LOADS of new SNOW! It's not light and fluffy but it's the perfect snow to add to our base depth and give our already fantastic conditions an added boost. We estimate that we received approximately 15-18cm and the snow is continuing to fall as I write. Here are a few early morning shots of the white gold!

Standard run

The school house

Slopeside...where everything in the store is 50% off!

Snow falling on cedars

It's not a foot deep...but it's over MY foot deep.

18cm (7")

Lots of deck clearing to be done today!

The forecast as of 8:41am this morning...like yesterday's -confusing but promising!

Did your bus get cancelled? Couldn't make it to work today? Let's weather out the storm together on the slopes of Brimacombe...don't forget Mid-Week Daily (9am to 4:30pm) Lift Tickets are just $20 taxes included!

The skiing was super at Brimacombe this past weekend...and having Sunny Side, Nice and Easy and Farmers Field open was a treat we don't see every year. This coming weekend promises to be even better...and we have lot's happening on the slopes, so plan to spend some time with us before it's too late!
