Contributions to the National Ski Patrol:
Bob Scarlett began his patrol career in 1975 as a College Senior at Saint Lawrence University in Canton, New York. Shortly thereafter, he achieved his Senior Alpine classification and went on to serve as the Legal Advisor and Patrol Representative for the Ski Liberty Patrol. He served his patrol and region as an Instructor and Instructor/Trainer before becoming the Legal Advisor for the Eastern Pennsylvania Region. Bob would go on to serve as the Region Legal Advisor for more nearly two decades. His outstanding leadership and legal contributions to his patrol and region lead to his selection to serve as the Eastern Division Legal Advisor from 1997-2006 where he played a key role during the complete re-write of the Division bylaws. His legal contributions at the National level include revisions and changes in many documents including our Articles of Incorporation, National Bylaws and National Policies and Procedures. Bob Scarlett has made numerous contributions to the National Outdoor Emergency Care Program including his authorship of the legal chapter for our Textbook, and support of our National and Division Medical Advisors and their Committees. His strong relationship with the National Ski Area Association and his sound and reliable legal guidance has helped to ensure that the National Ski Patrol remains a strong and independent nationally chartered institution.
