Join SheJumps & KEAP at Burke Mountain for a Junior Ski Patrol event!

SheJumps and Kingdom East Afterschool Programs (KEAP) are excited to offer a Junior Ski Patrol event at Burke Mountain!

Join us for SheJumps Wild Skills Junior Ski Patrol, a day camp at Burke Mountain on March 8th, 2026! Girls will learn mountain safety and first aid while working with the strong women of the Ski Patrol community. This event is intended for intermediate to expert skiers/snowboarders grades 3rd-8th.

This SheJumps Wild Skills event is structured as a full-day camp experience. Parents/legal guardians drop off participants for the day, who are then split into teams based on their skier ability. Throughout the day, participants are taught a range of outdoor skills that are utilized by ski patrollers to keep the mountain safe. We will work alongside patrollers and volunteers to learn more about the many facets of mountain safety and first aid.

SheJumps is an inclusive organization. We welcome all women and girls—transgender and cisgender, as well as non-binary people.

SheJumps and KEAP are proud to present a day of learning Wild Skills for Northeast Kingdom girls in grades 3-8th. Girls will learn, participate and create, plus all will receive a Wild Skills journal and certificate for joining in the fun.

Cost: $45, scholarships are available. Event Registration includes lift tickets, lunch and snacks. This event is free to students in the Kingdom East School District, when you register with the code sent by the school.
