Chad was an active and respected member of the Canadian Ski Patrol – Southern Alberta Zone (CSP-SAZ) for the last 28 years and was very involved with First Aid On Snow Training competitions. Chad, Kim and Justin enjoyed many weekends skiing on Castle Mountain while Chad was ensuring the slopes were safe.

He finally found his passion when he acquired his pilots license for PPG (paramotoring) spending countless hours enjoying the sport. He made many friends along the way, both on the snow and in the air.
