National Mountain Bike Patrol Recruitment

The Cleveland Area Mountain Bike Association (CAMBA), in cooperation with the International Mountain Biking Association (IMBA), is looking for dedicated volunteers for the National Mountain Bike Patrol. If you like:
  • Mountain biking
  • Helping other people
  • Being involved in the management of your local trails
  • Learning and sharpening such skills as outdoor first aid, trail-side bike repair, off-road riding, and communication
Then the NMBP is for you!

There are three requirements for IMBA/NMBP Patroller Membership:
  1. Current certification in basic first aid and CPR
  2. Successful completion of any of the following courses:
    • A mountain bike patrol training course (taught by a local NMBP-affiliated group, such as CAMBA)
    • A volunteer host training program (taught by a local land manager)
    • A ski area specific mountain bike patroller training (taught by a local ski area management or ski patrol)
  3. A passing grade on the NMBP Patroller online exam.
If you're interested in becoming involved, send an e-mail to Brian Lowe at nmbp@camba.us.
