ANNOUCEMENT: January 13th:
From the MSCA: Important Info Regarding Course Etiquette:
It's important for spectators, coaches, athletes and parents to know
the proper etiquette (and rules) about being on a Nordic course.
Spectators should always get to their favorite spot to watch from before
the race starts by either skiing in race direction on the trail or walking
on the approved foot paths ONLY. It's NEVER appropriate to walk on, or
beside, the race course at any time. Always stand completely off the trail
during the race, and wait until the last competitor is finished. Coaches
are allowed to run beside their athletes for a short distance, but not ski
backwards. No other movement is allowed during the race by athletes or
spectators. Never ski backwards at any time. The athletes deserve our
respect and should have a fair, safe and smooth track to race on. Safety
is always the first priority!

State Meets: MPA Ski Championships Memo from the MPA Ski Committee
ANNOUNCEMENT: July 11th:
2010 State Meets: Bid proposals were sent by the MPA to all areas capable of hosting State Meets. The State Meets for next season have been awarded by the MPA after reviewing the bid proposals received from Black Mountain, Saddleback, Mount Abram, Lonesome Pines, and Big Rock. Here are the sites for the 2010 State Meets:
Class A: Mount Abram (Alpine) | Black Mountain (Nordic)
Class B: Saddleback for both disciplines
Class C: Lonesome Pines (Alpine) | Fort Kent 10th Mountain (Nordic)
The dates for all three classes are the same: Tuesday, February, 16th, 2010 through Thursday, February 18th, 2010. While the next scheduled rotation to the County wasn't scheduled until 2012 (Class C), lacking any other venues, the Committee was forced to advance the rotation to next year, as there were no other southern areas willing to host the state meet. Dates and sites for future years will be decided next spring.
