  This years PSPA Certified Exam was held at Sunday River on March 5 and 6, 2025. Eleven north eastern ski areas were respsented at the exam. The eight candidates hailed from Gunstock, Killington, Sugarloaf and Sunday River. The terrain and conditions at Sunday River did not disappoint and made for a rewarding exam. Thank you to all the Examiners and staff who made the exam such a success. Also, thank you to Sunday River and the Sunday River Ski Patrol for being such gracious hosts. A big congratulations goes out to Connor Hubbard from Sugarloaf for earning the status of Certified Patroller.

• Ongoing Call to Members
  Remember that day you achieved your PSPA certification? Most likely it came as a result of lots of hard work and training. The process is not simple and requires candidates to push themselves to vastly increase their patrolling skills and knowledge.
   
  As a member of PSPA you bring these increased skills back to the patrolling world every day. The strength of the organization is the diversity of its membership. As a member the organization is calling on you to promote PSPA within your respective patrols. Often this may simply mean answering questions about the certification process or pointing the person in the right direction to get information. Motivating and helping others to also strive for certification is the best gift you can give to a fellow patroller.

Congratulations to:

	Tom Sutton shows off a good snowplow technique.
