Junior Ladies Patrol Day

Empowering the Next Generation of Ski Patrol Leaders!

Join us on March 8, 2026, for a demonstrative event, designed to introduce young women to the exciting world of ski patrol and the ski industry! Junior Ladies Patrol Day at Sun Peaks aims to inspire and educate young women aged 14+ about the many essential roles within the ski patrol team, while fostering a sense of empowerment, teamwork, and confidence. Our patrol and dispatch team will provide an opportunity to learn new skills, meet inspiring role models, and experience first-hand the vital work that keeps the mountain safe.

Throughout the day, participants will dive into the exciting world of ski patrol through fun, demonstrative, interactive stations and activities led by professional patrol members. Here’s a look at the skills you will learn:

• Avalanche Training: Experience how ski patrol keeps the mountain safe during avalanche season, and get hands-on experience with tools and techniques used to assess avalanche risks.
• Toboggan Demonstrations: Learn how ski patrollers work together to safely transport injured skiers down the mountain with toboggans and sleds.
• First Aid: Basic first-aid demonstrations for handling common ski injuries in a mountain environment.
• Rope Training: Master important rope skills such as tying knots, setting rope lines, and understanding the role of ropes in ski patrol rescues.
• Teamwork and Leadership: Through each activity, you'll also develop teamwork and leadership skills as you work together with other girls to solve challenges and support each other.
