So, you’re are excited about this year’s upcoming MIST, but you’re not sure what competition to sign up for. And, to make matters worse, you just don’t understand the rules for the competitions listed at the ever so helpful www.getmistified.com/competitions.

If you find yourself in this situation, don’t worry. It will often help to ask a fellow team mate if you don’t understand something. You can also ask your team’s registrar or coach.

If no one on your team knows the answer, you can always send us an email at mistBoston@gmail.com and we’ll be sure to respond to you as soon as possible.

This is for encouragement...

Assalaamu ‘Alaikum everyone

The weekend of April 3rd-4th, we will insha’Allah be holding the third annual Muslim Inter-Scholastic Tournament (MIST) at Harvard University. At last year’s MIST, more than a hundred high school students from the greater Boston area participated, competing in various academic events, attending workshops, and having lots of fun! This year, we are expecting an even higher turnout.

We will need volunteers to help make MIST run as smoothly as possible. We need people to judge competitions, coordinate food, supervise, take photographs, referee sports, coordinate games, etc. Volunteering takes no prior experience, and is very rewarding! We need volunteers to help judge in the many competitions. The list of the competitions can be found on http://www.getmistified.com/competitions/

The Arts, Group, and Bracket Competitions (Debate and Scholastic Bowl) require multiple judges while other test-taking competitions (ex: Math Olympics) require 1-2 volunteers each to proctor the tests. We also need multiple volunteers to help ref the Brothers and Sisters Basketball and Soccer Competitions.

MIST will run from 9:00am to 8:00pm on Friday April 3rd and 8:00am-9pm on Saturday,April 4th. If you are available at any of these times and would like to help out with any of the above mentioned tasks or anything else, please email me at abdelkader.o@neu.edu

And please feel free to forward this email widely to your friends, colleagues, MSAs, etc.

JazakumAllahu khair!
Omar

Registration information is HERE.

Additional Instructions: email Daniel and Usamah with basic information about your team (size, coaches’ names, area, relevant phone numbers/email addresses, etc.)
