Alpine Ski and Snowboard Patrol

Help keep winter recreators safe on the hill with this high demand, high reward volunteer role.

Join our corps of highly trained, regionally and nationally recognized volunteers. Patrollers must commit to a minimum of 60 hours each winter season, successfully complete and pass extensive initial training in emergency care and patrol skills as well as annual refreshers, and maintain membership and current certifications with National Ski Patrol.

Help guests in need. Gain new skills with advanced level continuing education, hands-on experience, and leadership opportunities. And earn alpine area and other Three Rivers volunteer privileges!

The candidate class fills fast; however, highly motivated, enthusiastic skiers and boarders are encouraged to apply and participate in the annual "Tryout Day".

Three Rivers Park District operates two ski areas. Hyland Ski & Snowboard Area in Bloomington and the Elm Creek Winter Recreation Area in Maple Grove (which also includes a tubing hill).
