Hello MAST Families, I have been asked if the policy regarding parents observing swim practice has changed given the increased Covid-19 concerns. As everyone knows by now, the state-wide, CDC and local restrictions seem to adjust on almost a daily basis.

Hello MAST Families, Thanksgiving week will have schedule changes due to the varied pool access. We will also see changes once high school meets begin as well as when school holidays begin. We will try to maximize swim practice opportunities for all groups during the holiday season. It is anticipated that everyone will have many other obligations or activities during the next month or so, and while it is hoped every swimmer will be able to attend as many practices as possible, we understand that sometimes practices will be missed....

Good News: We are permitted to resume MAST practices on Monday, November 16. Thanks to cooperation from the Milford High School coaches Megan Stilwell and Coach Emma, we will...
