Mission
The Eastern Division of National Ski Patrol is made up of nearly 10,000 dedicated men and women from diverse backgrounds who share the same passion and love for skiing and want to join that passion with the ability to help or assist their fellow skiers and snowboarders who may be in trouble. The Eastern Division includes Alpine and Nordic ski areas from Maine to West Virginia in 15 regions throughout the Northeastern United States: Central NY, CT, Eastern NY, Eastern PA, EMARI (Eastern MA and RI), Genesee Valley, Maine, NH, NJ, Northern VT, Southern NY, Southern VT, Western Appalachian (Western PA, MD, and parts of WV), Western MA, and Western NY. We are the largest NSP division.We provide training and support services to the individual patrols that furnish on-the-snow services to the general public at individual snowsports areas. The majority of services are provided by volunteers. We also have a growing bike patrol organization. www.nspeast.org
