The Holiday Valley Safety Patrol is one of the original safety patrols in the country. The Patrol began in 1982 with just 3 members who's job it was to prevent accidents by promoting safety on the slopes. Now, 26 years later, the familiar Yellow Jackets continue to remind skiers and riders of Smart Style, Your Resposibility Code and Common Sense on the slopes.

Safe Skiing Award

The Safety Patrol conducts an annual program to encourage and reward young skiers and riders who practice safety and courtesy. We award prizes to kids who are "caught in the act" of safe skiing or riding.

Young skiers and riders are cited for courteous behavior, for following Your Responsibility Code, or for anything our staff believes contributed to a safe, pleasant and fun skiing and riding experience. When young skiers and riders enjoy themselves and practice safety and courtesy, everybody wins.

So keep on skiing and riding safely, and you just might be rewarded!
