eliminated. Entry is on a first come basis; until the field
size is 300 for Part City. Pass this update to others who are
considering going to the Masters National Championships.
Here's the site
https://www.skiracerreg.com/secure/event.asp?id=986&selected_org_id=13689
The Skiracereg.com site requires registration and also requires a
credit card - but no charges will apply until just before the races.
One tip during registration, do not pick PNSA for your region, just
leave it blank, otherwise the site will filter for PNSA events and
will not recognize the Masters Nationals as a race you can
pick for registration.

Includes the Y-T-D results. See below for the SG3.

FOR SALE: We

PNSA ENTRY FEES:
Fees for 2012 season: SL & GS $27 per
day; SG $37 per day. PNSA raised the head tax for starts
and we are trying to keep the costs even for the race organizers.
Temporary licenses are still $25. The PNSA Championships, the
Western Regional's, and the US National Championships each have
their own fee schedule. Those fees are based on their cost
structure.
