To our new patrollers, welcome to an incredible community. You’re joining a group of individuals who are passionate not only about skiing and snowboarding, but about safety, giving back and making a difference on the slopes and within communities across Canada. You’re about to embark on a rewarding experience where your skills, dedication, and passion will make a real difference.

To our returning patrollers, thank you for your continued commitment. Your experience and leadership help shape the future of the patrol, and we’re so grateful for all you do.

I encourage you all to get involved and take advantage of the exciting opportunities the Canadian Ski Patrol has to offer. Whether it’s honing your first-aid skills, taking on a leadership role, or simply enjoying the camaraderie of your fellow patrollers, there’s something for everyone.
