Clarifications and Congrats to the Southwest Boys--MEC Champions!

Good Evening:

I know you jump for joy whenever you see an email from me in your inbox, so here is one more to make your weekend even better.

1.   MAST is covering the cost of a lift ticket to the Afton Invite. If you have an Epic Pass and you can use it to secure a lift ticket, you will help the MAST budget. But if you have limited uses on your pass, feel free to save your Epic Pass for another time.   

2.   I know that many of you have already completed the Afton/Vail waiver. Afton has not sent me a list of athletes who have completed the waiver since the Jan 5th race date, so the information I sent is incomplete. If you completed the waiver, don't worry about it. I'm sure your name will pop up when Afton sends me an updated list.

3. The Jan 5th and Jan 17th Metro East Conference races were designated as the two races that would determine the Metro East Conference Champions for 2021-22. Congratulations to the Southwest boys for edging out Hastings for the Metro East Conference Championship. This is an impressive accomplishment. Well done boys.  See the tallies in the attachment. The Washburn girls placed second to the best GIRLS ALPINE SKI TEAM in the history of  Minnesota high school racing. How do I know this? Because I have been around a long, long time. The first girls' state champion was my neighbor growing up. We raced on the same team. Be proud girls. Second to the all time best girls team is AWESOME!

See you tomorrow. And you can beg me as much as you want, but I will NOT be sending out another email tonight.

Sleep well.
