Volunteer
Host
Winter Park Volunteer Hosts are a very outgoing and enthusiastic team of skiers and snowboarders, who enhance our guests' vacation experience with their extensive knowledge of Winter Park Resort.
Our team has a passion for service – assisting guests with exceptional and enthusiastic service is our primary goal.
Volunteer tasks include greeting and assisting guests, on-mountain tours, lift-line organization, market research, trail map and brochure distribution, guest contact & service and end of day farewell. Strong intermediate ski or snowboard ability is necessary for on-mountain participation. Volunteer hosts are asked to complete 2 training days and a minimum of 10 volunteer days throughout the season. In exchange for their service, volunteer hosts are given a Winter Park season pass.
If you are interested in joining our team for NEXT winter beginning November 2013/14, please contact Guest Services Manager, Jodie Harvey, at 970.726.1583.
Thanks for your interest!
