Welcome to Bryce Resort Sports Education Foundation. We are a non profit organization whose guiding philosophy is to encourage academic achievement and promote the positive values of competitive Alpine, Snowboarding, and Cycling.

Our main objective is to assist student athletes in achieving their individual athletic, academic and personal goals. The program's guiding philosophy is to encourage academic achievement and promote the positive values of competitive sport: sportsmanship, self discipline, goal setting, character building and the pursuit of healthy lifetime activities.

 



horst locherryan_locher Established in 2012, the Bryce Resort Ski Education Foundation was developed as a non profit organization dedicated to the development and support of alpine, and snowboard race training and competition in Basye, Virginia. Horst Locher and his son Ryan Locher were instrumental in the development of BRSEF.

Today, as the Bryce Resort Sports Education Foundation, we are a member club of the Southern Alpine Racing Association and United States Ski & Snowboard Association. All of our programs are organized following the guidelines that have been established by USSA for skier development. The goals of BRSEF are to provide the opportunity for introductory to advanced levels of training and competition, assist in the healthy development of all participants through the pursuit of athletic, academic and personal goals, and to encourage academic achievement and promote the positive values developed through competitive sports.

Our vision is to be the leading authority in competitive ski and snowboard programs in the South Eastern United States, and to be a competent, well organized Foundation, deserving of public support.

Donations and fundraising events allow us to offer our programs to young people throughout the area. Because the ski industry and tourism are such a big part of Bryce's economy, it is important to continue to involve kids and their families in skiing. By sponsoring our program, you are supporting Bryce's future.

We bring positive recognition to Basye, Virginia and the state of Virginia. The development of a strong athletic training center helps make Bryce a great place to live and work. For us it is a matter of pride.

We rely on you to make BRSEF a success. We thank you for your substantial contributions of time, money and support. We are very proud to be a part of this community.
