MAST UPDATE #4 Friday, September 30, 2022 Good Evening MAST Families: Well, your coach pulled a good one today. He wrote a brilliant-poetic-memorable-enlightened MAST Update #4 in google-groups today. Then, thinking he had pressed “post”, he closed the screen, feeling confident that THIS would be the prose that would finally bring the Pulitzer to Minnesota. But guess what? He didn’t press “post” and in google-groups if you close out the screen anything you typed is lost. Gone. Disappeared. Sentenced to whatever purgatory unposted works of art are vanquished. Apparently. So, you were not the happy recipient of Update #4 this afternoon. So now, here I am, writing you late at night, trying to recall exactly what I had so proudly thought I had sent to you, while you, hopefully, are sleeping soundly. Here goes. Five Announcements Registration Opens at Midnight tonight! But please don’t stay up to register. There is plenty of time to do so over the weekend and thereafter. Attached are instructions for registering for MAST. Please read these instructions carefully before you register. It will make your life much easier. You can also find these instructions on our website right HERE: MASTRegistration 2022. The Orientation to High School Ski Racing and the Minneapolis Alpine Ski Team is now available for viewing on the homepage on our website. It is narrated. This is the same presentation I gave Monday evening, but it runs less than half the time that it took in-person. If all goes as planned, you should be able to click on the slideshow and the slideshow should start and advance automatically. You can even enlarge the slideshow to fill your screen. The other benefit of knowing how to access this slideshow: it will cure the most stubborn case of insomnia. Just play the slideshow, cover the screen with a dark dishtowel, close your eyes, and you will be fast asleep by the third slide. Here is a link: Mark’s narrated power point presentation guaranteed to both inform you and cure insomnia. HINT: If you click on the three vertical dots you will be able to download the presentation, pause it, and mute it. Tickets for the MAST Pasta Dinner Fundraiser at Mr. Paul’s Supper Club on Monday, October 10, 2022, are selling well. The 7PM Seating is nearly filled, and the 5:30PM Seating is about halfway filled. I want everyone to know that Mr. Paul’s is DONATING all the food and employee labor. This means that MAST will receive all of the money raised from ticket sales. This fundraiser is an incredibly generous gift to MAST from Mr. Paul’s Supper Club. So, let’s sell out this event! And be sure to thank everyone working that night. Purchase Tickets HERE! The Pierce Equipment Day is Wednesday, October 5. I will be in the shop all day and evening, whenever a MAST athlete is scheduled for an appointment. To make an appointment, call 952-884-1990. Finally, we had a fantastic fundraiser yesterday at Hiawatha Golf Course. Thank you to EVERYONE who participated and EVERYONE who had anything to do with organizing this event. A special thanks to Allison Krueger who put in countless hours making this event so successful on so many levels. Lost Club Is Found: And I need to announce to the gentleman whose golf club ran away yesterday afternoon that his club has been found. Please contact me and I will put you in touch with the fine gentleman who currently is housing your club. A picture of the club is attached. Well, I think that’s all I had to say in the original Update #4. Hope you are resting peacefully as this comes across the wires. Have a wonderful weekend! And now I am going to click on the button that says "Post message." Mark Conway 612-275-8392 [email protected]
