The Paoli Peaks Ski Patrol is part of the National Ski Patrol system. It is a group of highly dedicated men and women who are trained to help injured skiers and snowboarders and maintain a safe and controlled skiing environment. The National Ski Patrol was started in 1939 by Minnie Dole, who realized, after a serious skiing injury of his own, the need for a service agency to render aid to skiers in need. The Paoli Peaks Ski Patrol consists primarily of voluteers who work with a small number of professional patrollers.
Each year, all Patrollers are required to participate in a refresher course administered in accordance with a prescribed national standard. All patrollers are CPR certified. We are proud to say that all of our patrollers meet, and most exceed, the national standard. Training for candidates begin in September. Anyone interested in joining this dynamic team can download and complete the Ski Patrol Application from the link above and mail it to the address on the application or can contact the Patrol Representative at the numbers listed below with questions. This is a great opportunity to increase your skiing skills, help others and become part of a energetic and devoted group. Join us and a whole new dimension into your skiing and life.
