Pine Hill Ski Club exists only and entirely thanks to volunteers. ALL the work – regular trail
maintenance, grooming, equipment care, operations management, website conditions posting
and editing, Robb’s Hut events, financial management, correspondence, support of school
winter activity x-c programs – ALL is done completely by volunteers!
We need YOU! You can pick out a way to contribute, large or small, that suits your talents and
time available. Pick out any small bit from the list below and contact PHSC using the Contact
Form here on the website, and someone who volunteers in that area will contact you with
some options that will allow you to help!

Ski Season Needs, at PHSC:
Groomers – Get trained to drive the grooming machines. Two or three groomers go out
following storms, and as otherwise needed between storms, as scheduled by the head groomer.
Gate Keepers – Maintain a key to open and close the locked gate at the trailhead. On
days PHSC is open, Open at 9am, Close at 4pm Dec-Jan and 5pm Feb-Mar. Gate closers
check the parking lot to be sure no vehicles remain in the lots. Separate volunteers may
do open or closing duties, and may be scheduled for short intervals not the whole season!
Greeters – For holidays or busy weekends, be a greeter at the trailhead, answering
questions, helping collect trail fees, for 2-3 hours.

woodstove, greet skiers, offer hot cocoa, pancakes etc. Sign up for one day that works for you.
