Congratulations OEC SouthBay 2023 Graduates!















A big congratulations to this year's Outdoor Emergency Care course graduates!

As we said in class "Train hard so game day is easy". And you all did just that - hundreds of hours, countless scenarios. I am confident you'll all go on to be great ski patrollers. Give yourself a pat on the back...and then check CMS. 😉
As always, a big thanks to your Chief Judge, Mark Galicia. Great job once again this year. And of course to all the volunteers who made the course & exam possible.
Now, let it snow!
