SacC MUN 2020 Bulletin #9: MUNster Mash, Meetings, and More....

Parents - please share this email with your Ambassador if they don't have an email address of their own yet, and if they do have an address, remind them to check their inbox! 

1.) No Meetings Through April 7. 

2.) In the meantime - Introducing MUNster Mash 2020: MUNster Mash is a online competition where Ambassadors can earn mash-cash toward towards raffle prizes and the title of MUNster Masher of the Year. We'll be sending out short quizzes, scavenger hunts, and other assignments via email and Remind. Participate, earn mash-cash, learn, and have fun! First up, the International Days Quiz. 

Read an article and do some basic research on the UN website, answer some questions, and presto! You're on your way toward the MUNster Hall of Fame. Due Sunday, March 15

Revised Summit Plans: Final plans remain fluid. The statewide programming is working hard with facility partners to set a schedule that minimizes school absences and eases travel complications. As mentioned previously, initial target dates are May 21-24, however the statewide office is working on potentially shifting to May 22-25 (to take advantage of the Monday Memorial Day holiday) or offering an extra night of accommodation to enable us to arrive the day before the conference starts so programming can start earlier in the morning. As soon as things get a little less fluid, we'll let you know.  

If you have date conflicts or school-calendar concerns (finals, statewide testing, Memorial Day travel, etc) covering any day from March 20-25, please let Christiana know ASAP.

- Meeting Plans: As mentioned, we will not meet on March 17. We hope to have meetings resume after that but will continue to monitor public health advisories. We may also look to move our meetings from Tuesdays to Wednesdays. If your Ambassador CANNOT meet on Wednesdays, please let Christiana know. Nothing is finalized yet. Isn't uncertainty great! 

- Encourage MUNster Mash participation: please help us keep Ambassadors thinking and learning during this hiatus by encouraging them to take the International Days Quiz and to choose their International Day and work on their 2 min presentation about it. Ask them to share their presentation with you for practice! 


Reminders: 


Program Area Assignments: Program area assignments and leadership opportunities can be found in previous bulletins


Thank you!
