Ski Patrol

At 15 years old, you can become a Student Patroller. Student is an age group only and does not determine the level of patrolling you do. Students who have taken the OEC course and completed their on-hill checklist just like an adult Patroller can do what the adults do with the exception of operating machinery such as our power drill, snowmobile or act as a temporary lift operator.

Students receive extra training from our Student Advisor and from seminars held around NH at various ski areas on OEC skills, skiing and riding, and toboggan handling. They also have an opportunity to attend a three-day Division Student Seminar held somewhere in the North East. Each season is hosted by a different ski area, which allows the students to experience a variety of terrain.

Our Students have become Outstanding Patrollers in the past. Since 1991 Pats Peak has had the Outstanding Student Patrol Award in the country three times and the runner-up twice (5 different students).

In their senior year, and sometimes in their junior year of High school, students who are available to patrol after school during our January and February school programs can be paid as a part-time employee depending on need. State labor laws dictate work hours depending on age.
