2024 Winter Camp

We are excited to announce that Winter Camp will be held February 5 – 9, 2024, in Steamboat Springs, CO! This program was developed specifically for teens that have participated in our summer camp program and are interested in learning and growing both on and off the mountain. Participants spend their days shredding the snow and learning new skills and tricks. After a full day on the mountain, the group heads back to the Steamboat Grand Lodge to relax in the hot tub and get ready for the evening’s activities which focus on personal growth and goal setting unique to these campers. Burn survivors who have attended the Cheley Children’s Hospital Colorado Summer Burn are eligible to attend. Click here to read more and/or to apply by December 31, 2023.

16th Annual BCER Fire Hose Race

We are excited to announce that the Fire Hose Race is back! Presented and hosted by BCER, the 15th annual race will be held on Friday, February 23, 2024, at Arapahoe Basin! The Fire Hose Race consists of 30 teams of five skiers each spaced along a 50’ fire hose working as a team to maneuver through a 15-gate giant slalom course. Along with carrying the hose, each team member is required to wear a bunker coat and a fire helmet. Each team completes two runs, and the fastest overall single run time will win the event and is awarded the Fire Hose Race Trophy! This year’s Fire Hose Race will once again benefit the Children’s Hospital Colorado Children’s Burn Camps Program.
