What is the Canadian Ski Patrol?
The Canadian Ski Patrol is a national, non-profit, registered charitable organization that is volunteer-based and provides advanced first aid and emergency response services at more than 230 ski resorts and Nordic centers as well as hundreds of recreational and sporting events across Canada.
What is the Calgary Zone?
The Calgary Zone is a partnership between the Canadian Ski Patrol and the Bow Valley and surrounding area to provide volunteer ski patrollers to:
- Lake Louise
- Mount Norquay
- Nakiska
- Panorama
- Sunshine Village
- groomed Nordic trails in Peter Lougheed Provincial Park
How Much Money Will I Make?
None. The Canadian Ski Patrol is a volunteer organization, and none of our patrollers is compensated monetarily for their time. Many resorts have both paid and volunteer ski patrollers. Where there are both, they work together as one team. Each resort manages the two branches of the patrol differently in terms of roles and responsibilities. If you wish to join the paid patrol, please contact the resorts directly. We work closely together, but each resort manages its own hiring.
