🌟 Volunteer Spotlight Series: Meet Scott! 🌟
Next up in our Volunteer Spotlight series is Scott, a volunteer who brings experience, heart, and service both on and off the snow.
Scott has been volunteering with 3 Trackers of Ohio since 2019, encouraged by longtime friend and former president Yolanda Niemollar, who knew his background as a veteran and seasoned skier would make him a great fit.
⛷️ On the snow:
Scott has been skiing since he was 4 years old and is now in his 20th season on the BMBWAV Ski Patrol. He’s a PSIA-certified instructor with Alpine Level 2 and Adaptive Level 1 certifications — and it shows in the confidence he helps build in our athletes.
🎖️ Veteran service:
Scott served in the U.S. Marine Corps from 1997–2003 as a KC-130 aerial navigator, with deployments supporting Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom.
❤️ Favorite moment:
Watching one of his first students go from uninterested on beginner terrain to confidently linking turns on intermediate trails — all within a single season.
🤍 Why he volunteers:
To share his love of skiing, give back to the community, connect with fellow combat veterans, and help “keep the promise.”
🎥 Off the hill:
Scott and his wife, Chrissi, are proud rescue pet parents to two dogs and two cats, and he enjoys photography and video in his downtime.
