We ask all patrollers (new, returning, and transfers) to complete an annual fundraising commitment. When you complete your fundraising commitment, you receive a discount on the following year\u2019s fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you can\u2019t do your shifts personally, you can ask a friend or a family member to work on your behalf. You just need to let us know who is serving your shift for you. In fact, volunteering at one of these events is even more fun if you have a friend or family member with you. The more volunteers we provide, the more funds we raise. A portion of the funds we raise is used to keep the membership fees you pay in the fall as low as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Calgary New and Used Ski Sale<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can complete your fundraising commitment for the year by working for a minimum of 8 hours total at the Calgary New &amp; Used Ski Sale in October. Working at the ski sale is lots of fun and there is a wide range of roles available (sales, cash, security, parking lot, etc.). You can sign up for shifts starting at 8:00 a.m. on September 8, 2026 on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skisale.ca\/volunteer-opportunities\/volunteer-sign-up\/\">CNUSS Volunteer Sign-up<\/a> page. Sign up early in September to get the shifts\/duties you prefer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Casino<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some years, the Canadian Ski Patrol participates in a casino, and you can complete your fundraising commitment for the year by working one 8-hour shift at the casino. In 2027, we will be participating in a casino sometime in the first fiscal quarter (January to March). The exact date will be announced as soon as it is available. To sign up for a shift, email <a href=\"mailto:gordon.merz@skipatrol.ca\">Gordon Merz<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"351\" height=\"357\" src=\"https:\/\/cspnational.s3.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/02\/17220227\/CNUSS2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9114\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cspnational.s3.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/02\/17220227\/CNUSS2.jpg 351w, https:\/\/cspnational.s3.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/02\/17220227\/CNUSS2-295x300.jpg 295w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 351px) 100vw, 351px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Skip the Depot<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"484\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/cspnational.s3.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2026\/08\/23163701\/SkiptheDepot.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10450\" style=\"width:209px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cspnational.s3.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2026\/08\/23163701\/SkiptheDepot.png 484w, https:\/\/cspnational.s3.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2026\/08\/23163701\/SkiptheDepot-300x93.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 484px) 100vw, 484px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do you have bottles piling up?
