MAST Week Four Update (Friday, December 1, 2023)

MAST Update Week Four
Friday, December 1, 2023

Good Morning MAST Families:
You are receiving your weekly MAST Update a few days in advance. I have a busy weekend and want to get a lot of important information into your hands so you don’t miss anything.


Hyland Training Schedule
Last week I sent you the Hyland Training Schedule. Please find this schedule attached again. We will also communicate the schedule and any changes in our weekly updates, on the home page of our website, in google calendar which you can find at the bottom of our home page on our website, and in Team Snap messaging and calendaring.

Giants Ridge Camp
First, REGISTRATION for the Giants Ridge Camp closes tonight at midnight. If you need more time to decide whether you can attend, send me an email. Otherwise, please register today. Training spots are available for girls. Any boys who register today will be put on a wait list. Boys: you can register for camp but select the pay by check option when you check out—DO NOT send a check until you hear from me that a spot has opened up.
Register for Camp HERE.

Parent Race Worker Training
Sunday, December 3 at 7PM:
Here is the LINK to log in: Dec 3 Race Worker Training 
This is a very important training for parents. Whether you are new to racing or an experienced race worker, please attend. We will be joined by parents from other Metro East Conference teams. We need more parents to become educated about our sport so that we can continue to give our athletes well run and fair competitions. Alpine skiing does not rely on paid officials to run races. Not even at the World Cup level. I have a good friend who volunteers every year at the Birds of Prey World Cup Races at Beaver Creek. He is there now running the timing at one of the interval stations. That race alone relies on 350 volunteers. We need around 20 for our races.
