The Why Behind THE SIXTY TWO™ Society-Vail

Brad Kaemmer • June 3, 2025

I just wanted to take a quick moment to introduce you to my lifelong ambition: creating something extra special at the base of Vail Mountain. THE SIXTY TWO™ Society is my legacy return to the valley and will, without question, exceed every expectation.

 

I was born, raised, worked, learned, and ultimately my career was shaped by my native home and those early pioneers that mentored me here in Vail.

 

What I learned growing up in Vail is that intention lives in the details. That warmth isn't loud—it’s omnipresent. That an intimate space can shift your state of mind, if you build it with care, love, and sincerity.

 

THE SIXTY TWO™ Society is a culmination of that hospitality architecture… a tribute to the quiet, yet personalized touches that can make a place unforgettable while building lasting generational traditions. Some of my favorite memories in Vail weren’t made on the mountain—they happened after the skis were off and the spirit of hospitality and camaraderie reigned supreme.

 

I have purposefully studied service cultures where every detail matters—where engagement is an art form and intention is everything. I’ve been fortunate enough to help shape unique restaurant spaces, lead teams, run emerging companies, and cultivate exceptional experiences in culinary locations across the country. However, nothing pulls at my heartstrings like the power of Vail.

 

As we continue to bring THE SIXTY TWO™ Society to life, those efforts are what help guide us and ultimately shape our cultural ethos. We’re not building a clubhouse, ski locker room, or storage facility… We are setting the table for the kind of iconic experiences that resonate with families long after the snow melts.

 

As a multi-dimensional, accomplished hospitality industry veteran, CEO, sommelier, and culinarian, this project has become my destiny and changed my life in a meaningful way. We are creating a place where tradition feels alive, attention to detail is paramount, and every action creates a cherished memory.

 

People ask me why THE SIXTY TWO™ Society? Or why now?

 

Truth is, it was never one big grandiose idea. It was a thousand little ones, gathered over a lifetime and stitched together over decades in the hospitality and service industry.

 

I believe in and cherish community, in artisanal craftsmanship, in doing things the right way, and in giving every guest a compelling reason to return.

 

THE SIXTY TWO™ Society isn’t just a place—it’s a reflection of all that has shaped me and, most importantly, a tribute to those who showed me what matters most. I didn’t set out to build something exclusive for exclusivity’s sake—but rather something meaningful, rooted in excellence, and something to be proud of for my family.

 

Not grandeur.

Not luxury for the sake of luxury.

Just something true, boutique, and personal.

Something lasting and remarkable.

Redefining Ease at Elevation: How the Northstar App Elevates Vail Hospitality

June 7, 2025
In a world where "time off" often comes with its own to-do list, the modern vacation has lost some of its ease. Gear to organize, reservations to track, arrivals to coordinate, and dinners to plan—it can feel like you're managing your life in a different ZIP code rather than escaping it. We built THE SIXTY TWO™ Society around a different idea. From the beginning, our vision was to craft more than a space. It was always about building an experience—where members could arrive and instantly exhale. Where needs are anticipated, not requested. Where the friction of logistics fades into the background, leaving room for presence, enjoyment, and connection. Now, we're bringing that promise to life. Introducing the Northstar ClubNow 2.0 App Launching exclusively for members of THE SIXTY TWO™ Society , the Northstar ClubNow 2.0 App is our answer to the modern challenge of vacation planning. But more than that—it's our commitment to making your time in Vail feel like time well spent. Vail offers year-round beauty and recreation, but with it comes the inevitable coordination: ski rentals, dinner reservations, car services, kids' activities, grocery stocking, even spa or wellness bookings. And if you're not a local—or you're managing a second home—those details quickly add up. The very charm of Vail’s high-altitude lifestyle can become the cause of stress for travelers seeking peace, not planning.That’s where THE SIXTY TWO™ Society steps in, and Northstar becomes the nerve center of support.

Real-Time Member Support from Anywhere The Northstar App allows direct communication with our Member Services team. Whether you're en route or on-site, we're just a tap away to support your plans. Private Dining, Spa, and Wellness Coordination Plan a chef-led tasting experience, reserve a private dining space, or arrange a cross country ski tour for your group.

What Northstar ClubNow 2.0 Delivers: Personalized concierge services year-round Ski valet & winter service requests at your fingertips Dining & event reservations , curated to your preferences Direct communication with our Member Services team Support for family arrivals , private tastings, wellness treatments, guided summer hikes, and more Whether you’re preparing for a winter arrival, booking an alpine wildflower hike for your kids, coordinating a chef-led tasting dinner , or simply ensuring your boots are warmed by the time you walk in—Northstar creates the ease you didn’t know was possible.

The air is warm and crisp, wildflowers bloom along sun-dappled trails, and the alpine glow stretches long into the evening. Summer in Vail isn’t just a season—it’s a state of mind. GoPro Mountain Games: Where Adrenaline Meets Art The buzz begins early in June, as the iconic GoPro Mountain Games return (June 5–8, 2025)This beloved event fills Vail Village with athletes, art, and adventure. Crowds gather to watch world-class competitors tackle kayaking rapids, scale rock walls, and leap with their dogs into splash pools in DockDog . The pulse of the village quickens, and for a few days, Vail becomes a festival of adrenaline, live music, and mountain culture. Vail Craft Beer Classic: Cheers to Mountain Life The Vail Craft Beer Classic (June 13–14, 2025) taps into the high-country spirit with brews as bold as the scenery. Breweries from across the country gather to showcase their latest creations, pairing perfectly with blue skies and backyard-style games along Gore Creek. It's the kind of event where strangers quickly become friends, and each pint feels like a toast to mountain life. Vail America Days: Fourth of July Festivities Independence Day brings with it the timeless joy of Vail America Day s. (July 4, 2025) Families spread picnic blankets across the grass while live music plays from the Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater .

The outdoor amphitheater, nestled beneath the mountain’s gaze, becomes a sanctuary for sound—where concertgoers sip wine under starry skies.
