Student Leadership Council

A cornerstone of MiSCA’s mission is “to create a fun environment where everyone can experience the joys of the outdoors”. We are looking for motivated student-athletes to join the Student Leadership Council (SLC) to help us dream up and execute new ideas that will make MiSCA better for current and future mountain bikers.

The Student Leadership Council (SLC) is an opportunity for student-athletes to learn and serve in the areas of leadership, advocacy, and stewardship to advance youth mountain biking through MiSCA.

The SLC is comprised of up to three groups:  Communications & Marketing, Environmental & Trail Stewardship, Coaching & Mentorship.

In addition, all SLC members will have the the opportunity to provide input on the future of MiSCA and the programs offered.
