4. What is the most important thing you gained from this experience? Why?
  The most important thing I gained from this experience was being able to follow around fellow patrollers and actually go on rescues and locate a beacon by myself. This was all important because patrollers, like nurses and doctors see everything and anything. They see anything from minor cuts to major concussions and broken bones. Being involved was good for me because I got to see what a patroller does in situations and I got to see if this is something I actually want to pursue when I turn 18.

5. How did what you did help you choose a topic?  Please explain.
My mentorship helped me choose a topic because I'm really interested in skiing and anything medical related and Ski Patrol is a combination of both of these things. Also, I've been on Junior Ski Patrol since I was a Freshman and I've always enjoyed volunteering. Patrolling is something I would like to do as a side job in the future.

3. What has the most important part of the senior project based on what you are seeing in the 2-hour presentations?

The answers to the essential question is the most important because its the basis of the presentation. Most of your activities come from the answers to your essential question.
