Eli and Jack gearing up for the day.
We are pleased to have the support of the ELI BROOKENS MEMORIAL FUND.
CBMS winter sports program is for all students, regardless of ability to pay. These mountains that surround us are an amazing resource that should be accessible to all who live here.
Eli's Memorial Fund will assist families with the cost of the program's registration fees.
We are very excited for the upcoming season and look forward to a great year on the slopes. If you have any questions or concerns please don't hesitate to email us anytime.
Eli Brookens is a graduate of the CBMS Ski and Ride program (now called the winter sports program). He died when he was 16 years old in 2016.
In Eli’s words, “When I’m not skiing, I feel like a part of me is missing.” The ski program at CBMS made skiing a possibility for Eli. He felt a kind of peace on the ski mountain that he didn’t find elsewhere. Eli’s family created the memorial fund to honor Eli by offering that to other children in our community.
If you need help paying for the program, check the scholarship box on your student's registration form.
So many community members and loved ones far and wide have donated to Eli’s Memorial Fund. Since it’s inception in 2019, the fund has supported countless students to participate. If you can, please donate to help other students experience the mountains and honor Eli’s spirit.
