Hosting MASC Events

INFORMATION FOR 2023-2024 

MASC is currently seeking a host for the April 13th Spring Leadership Conference!  Scroll to the bottom of the page for details.

Thank you for your interest in hosting a MASC event.  Without host schools/regions, it would be difficult for MASC to fulfill its mission: to foster a statewide environment for all secondary school students to express and exchange opinions and ideas, develop leadership skills, and promote student representation and involvement in all groups and organizations impacting the lives of students.

Throughout the year, there are major conferences and several small events for which MASC needs hosts.  Our major conferences, the Fall Leadership Conference, the new Convention (Legislative Session is now included as part of the Convention), and the Spring Leadership Conference require an interested school(s)/region(s) to present a “bid” for the event at an executive board meeting.

Forums (Women’s Leadership Forum) and other webinars and town halls will remain virtual events so more students from around the state can attend (no registration fees or transportation costs).

Below you will find the information for the 2023-2024 school year.   If you have any questions, please email Executive Director Nicete Moodie (Nicete.Moodie@mdstudentcouncils.org) or Assistant Executive Director Karen Crawford (Karen.Crawford@mdstudentcouncils.org).

CLOSED 2024 NEW Convention – February 28, 29, and March 1, 2024 (2024 is a Leap Year)
This new convention combines the business from the previous Legislative Session event with the Convention.  To make hosting at the Convention more manageable, Advisor Hospitality hosting is now a separate bid event.  Note that a school/region can still opt to bid on both the Convention and the Advisor Hospitality responsibilities.
