At the Open House you spend a day skiing with the patrol.  The training staff will inform you if your skiing or boarding skills are at a level to continue on with the process of becoming a patroller, or if you need more practice.

If your skiing or boarding level meets the expectation you will be asked to come back the following two weekends, on March 23 or March 24th and on March 30 or 31, for two Orientation Days. On these days, you will shadow the patrol, beginning with morning meeting at 8:00 a.m. and concluding after closing sweeps are "down and clear" for the day (usually around 4:45 p.m.).

Following OEC, you enter Ski and Toboggan training (S&T). This training happens at Brighton over the course of 10 weeks, on Sundays only. At the conclusion of S&T, you will have a ski and toboggan practical evaluation. At this point, you sign up for patrol days of your choice, and once you've signed off certain mentoring milestones you are considered a full patroller! At the start of the following season you will be eligible for full benefits, which include a Season Pass and buddy pass discounts as described below.
