Friday, March 8, 2024 Dear MAST Athletes, Parents, Coaches and Fans: Please read for some very important announcements regarding
I. Voting For Next Season’s MAST Captains BEFORE you arrive at the banquet on Sunday, please click on the link below to learn who wants to serve as a captain next year and why. You will be able to cast your vote for 2 girls and 3 boys. A fantastic slate of athletes has expressed their interest in serving as your captain next year. Please honor the courage it takes to put your name in the ring and read their statements carefully before voting. When you log in, use your name (your vote will be kept secret) and use your MPS email address. One vote per current athlete only. We will keep your vote secret, but we will make sure that those who vote are only voting once and are associated with our team. No ballot stuffing. https://forms.gle/6i8ZQUqZAzB6xyqUA Submit your vote no later than 4PM on Sunday, March 10. The link will close at 4PM sharp. This means that if you want to vote, you need to do so BEFORE you come to the banquet. PARENTS: PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR ATHLETE HAS SEEN AND READ AND ACTED ON THIS OPPORTUNITY TO VOTE. WE REALIZE THAT THEY DON'T CHECK EMAIL OFTEN. II. 2024-25 Hyland Season Pass Spring Sale Once again, we are offering you the opportunity to save some money on your 2024-25 Hyland Season Pass by purchasing the pass with MAST.

You can also purchase your pass directly from Hyland HERE. The online price increases to $499 on April 1 through October 31. The price increases again to $524 on Nov 1. III. Athlete Race Day Lift Tickets This season we did not ask parents/athletes to pay for lift tickets in advance of our away races as we did last year. As you will learn from the letter posted below from our Board, we made the mistake of thinking that Team Snap gave us the capability of applying athlete credits to the TS invoicing capabilities. We were wrong. So, we are coming to you after the season to collect payment for all tickets purchased for away races this winter for your athlete. Read on for more information on how to pay. Hello, MAST parents. When we made the decision to use Google Spreadsheets for race intentions, we circumvented Team Snap's payment process and lost the ability for parents and athletes to apply athlete credits from coffee and salsa sales against amounts due for their away lift tickets. Next year we will revert to using Team Snap for race intentions to simplify your payment process. For the 2023/24 race season, we've created a list of any away race lift ticket costs by athlete. This list will be posted at the banquet on Sunday where you can pay via either Venmo or check. Any available credits have been applied to balances due and you will see this reconciliation in the list. Apologies for any confusion. Many thanks. The MAST Board IV.
