A Vail Family Legacy
THE SIXTY TWO™ Society is the vision of Brad Kaemmer, a second-generation restaurateur with a career spanning over 30 years. John and Julie Kaemmer, Brad’s parents, arrived in Vail in the mid-1960s and opened the London Bar and Grille (later The Clock Tower Inn), setting a new standard for quality dining.
Brad considers it a privilege to build upon his family’s legacy in the same place they loved the most. An accomplished hospitality executive and sommelier, Brad was born and raised in Vail and is working in concert with the local community in bringing THE SIXTY TWO™ Society and THE SIXTY TWO™ Restaurant to fruition.
In 1962, on December 15th at 9 a.m., Colorado’s newest ski area opened with two chairlifts and the four-person Bell Gondola, the first gondola in the state. Eight runs covered six square miles of terrain, and lift tickets were $5. It didn’t take long for shops and restaurants to follow, and in 1966, the Town of Vail was officially incorporated.
