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".
