Beginner Stories! Shawna from Courtice.

I am a busy but energetic mom of three sweet little boys, ages 4, 6 and 8. I have always loved to ski and prior to having children, I had skied at Brimacombe for years. Last winter I decided it was time to get my boys hooked on skiing and so the 4 of us braved the hills at Brimacombe. On our very first day of skiing, all of my boys (then aged 3, 5, and 7) made it up and down the Bambi hill on their own, while they worked on their "pizza stops" and loving every minute of the very fun "magic carpet". 

Not only did they excel on their first visit out (proving if they can walk they can ski!), my oldest son Baylan (then 7) decided after his first day of skiing, that he was ready for the bigger hill and the chairlift! And so, for the rest of the winter he and I had some very special mother and son dates, where we went up and down the chair lift together, skiied down "Pete's Elbow', and enjoyed hot chocolate together in the East Chalet.  

Not only was the skiing fun, the drives to and from the hill made for some very special conversation.  Now we all love to ski and are looking forward to another winter of fun at Brimacombe! Thank you Brim for the wonderful family skiing experiences!
