October 8, 2005 – The Canadian Ski Patrol is delighted to announce the kickoff of the Canadian Ski Patrol’s Winter Extreme Ski & Board Swaps nationally from coast to coast. Just view here: www.winterextreme.com

· The Canadian Ski Patrol’s Winter Extreme Ski & Board Swap is cumulatively the world’s
largest Ski & Board Swap in both consumer product selection and volume of sales. This is the
only national retail event of its kind. It’s Extremely big and offers Extreme selection.
· The Canadian Ski Patrol’s Winter Extreme Ski & Board Swap is the headline feature at
Canada’s largest winter enthusiast events, the Toronto Ski Show and the Vancouver Snow
Show.
· Each of the Canadian Ski Patrol’s Winter Extreme Ski & Board Swaps offers local residents an
opportunity to sell their current good condition gear enabling them to upgrade to the latest
equipment at ‘Extreme’ savings.
· Each of our 11 Canadian Ski Patrol Winter Extreme Ski and Board Swaps reflect a distinct
local flavor. Most Winter Extreme events feature the best local and destination mountain
resorts which offer ‘Extreme’ deals on area passes. Businesses catering to winter outdoor
enthusiasts offer ‘Extreme’ deals on related goods and services.
· Prizes, Prizes, Prizes! – Many of the Canadian Ski Patrol’s Winter Extreme Ski & Board Swaps
feature draws for season passes, gear and much more. For example, at both the Vancouver
and Abbotsford, British Columbia events attendees may participate in the “Winter Extreme
Long Putt Challenge” featuring a Sunday high noon putt off to win a new Toyota Highlander.
· Best of all, 100% of proceeds support local volunteer first aid and rescue services by the
Canadian Ski Patrol. The Canadian Ski Patrol is Canada’s largest active volunteer first aid and
rescue organization. Check them out at www.skipatrol.ca.

to be there to help you or yours if we should “meet by accident”.
