Dusty and Liz have been asking me about volunteer opportunities with the Big Sky Ski Patrol this year. I only did it this past year, so if you are more than a little curious, you might want to seek out some Patrol beta on the cost-benefit. Actually, one of the people in our Physics section this semester is one of the crustier pro patrollers, so you can ask her if you dare. I have my own opinion, which I will share with anyone buying beer. You will do a lot of ortho rescues, which is not real common in other EMS settings. But... oh, I don't want to ruin the surprise.
Anyway, if you're gung-ho for this, get your EMT-B and then clear the following weekends on your calendar:
Medical Refresher ##November 14, 15, and 21 or 22
On-Hill Refresher ##December 5 and 6
Rookie Training ##December 12, 13, 19, and 20
For further information, consult this website: www.bsvsp.com or send an e-mail to Jim Bowker, the recruiting coordinator at jim_bowker@fws.gov
