| + | We no longer are required to do Boreal Patrols. |
| − | | + | |
| − | All TBSP patrollers are required to sign-up and complete one day of ski patrol at Boreal Mountain Resort. Sign-up days correspond to the Boreal NSP patrol schedule and include weekends and midweek days during holidays. Available days include days outside of the normal TBSP patrol schedule. Specifically, the Boreal season begins earlier and ends earlier than the TBSP season and the NSP schedule includes extra days during Thanksgiving, Christmas-New Year holiday, and national holidays. Candidates do not sign-up for Boreal ski patrol days. If a patroller has to cancel his or her Boreal day, the APD for scheduling must be notified in advance. Please contact TBSP-Boreal liaison if you need any further information or wish to give some feedback about your Boreal experience (currently: James Rosen, 707-337-4590 [mailto:james.rosen@comcast.net james.rosen@comcast.net]).
