However, there may be a need to cancel due to hazardous weather conditions such as severe thunderstorm, tornados and/or snow storms. If any of these conditions are threatening, please check the MAS homepage and/or the MAS info line at 952-467-2426, after 4:00 pm the day of the event for cancellation notices.
