Campaign Story
The Park City Professional Ski Patrol Association (PCPSPA) needs your support. Since April, we have been in negotiations with Vail Resorts to secure a contract that fairly compensates our Ski Patrol and Mountain Safety teams while addressing the rising cost of living in the Wasatch region. This effort extends beyond just compensation – it’s about ensuring respect and safety for all mountain workers.
On December 13th, 2024, our union members unanimously passed a strike authorization vote. While we remain committed to negotiating in good faith, we must prepare for the possibility of a work stoppage if Vail Resorts fails to offer reasonable terms.
The most impactful way to show support is by contributing to our strike fund and sharing our message. This fund will:
- Help leverage our bargaining power with Vail at the negotiations table
- Provide essential support to PCPSPA members during any potential work stoppage
- Provide income to members of PCPSPA who have yet to return to work because of the lack of snow
- Many of our patrollers live paycheck to paycheck. If there is a work stoppage, CWA will only issue funds at $300/week to members ON DAY 15 of a strike. This fund lessens the stress of members in having to choose between crossing a picket line for a paycheck vs supporting their peers. If we are able to raise $100,000. Between our almost 200 Patrollers this will mean $500/Person.
Our goals are based on current local economic data. We are negotiating to:
- Establish an entry-level base rate of $23/hour (current entry-level rate adjusted for inflation since March 2022)
- Implement a wage structure that properly rewards skilled and experienced patrollers and addresses wage compression
- Enhance benefits and educational opportunities for all members
