The American Birkebeiner Ski Patrol is a collection of NSP patrollers coming together each year to form a Patrol which serves as an integral part of the medical team at the American Birkebeiner XC-ski race in late February.  Members of the Birkie Patrol come from throughout the NSP Central Division and Canada.  Nordic-qualified* patrollers wishing to join the Birkie Patrol should contact their home Region's Nordic Advisor or the Central Division Nordic Supervisor for more information.

*Alpine patrollers with reasonable x-c skiing skills are also welcome.
