Welcome...
If you are new to all of this, you're probably wondering just what this is all about. The best way to get started is by reading the official participant guide, that you can find on our Downloads page. It will answer most, if not all, of your questions.
Learn About The Event -- Read the Participant Guide!
To read the participant guide, you'll need a piece of software called
Acrobat Reader
, from Adobe Systems, if you don't already have it. This software is used widely around the web to free you from the burden of needing to own Microsoft Office products just to do some downloading. It's free; it's safe. Get it by clicking at right.
If you've never "done" Mass Ave. or the Hong Kong before, here's a few quick links to get you acclimated. But still do yourself a favor and explore the rest of the website; you'll get all the rest of the details.
Learn About Mass. Ave...
...and a little about the Hong Kong.
And, finally, in this very visible, up front section of the page, is the section that is always available for rent. The area to the right could feature your link! Sometimes we get a taker, sometimes not. If there is a real link there, check it out!
This Week's Featured Link.....
Segway!
The recommended self-balancing, personal transportation device of the MassAveAThon. Because we all know just how difficult self-balancing can sometimes become....especially on the Saturday Before Thanksgiving.....

ALL "GAME DAY" HANDOUTS ARE STILL DISCONTINUED!
-- All participants should note that there will be ABSOLUTELY
NO (NO!) handouts
on game day this year! What does this mean? It means that you won't be able to get a Participant Guide ("the Map") nor a Shipping Label ("the Nametag") at the Hong Kong. Yes, really. Prepare yourself by downloading the official "stuff" (the Shipping Label, the Participant Guide) now. Help your friends out - get copies for them, too. Remember, there is only limited bandwidth available for downloading - don't get caught when it's too late!
Click here to go get the "Stuff"
Click, explore and read. Be the best you can be. Be an educated consumer. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Please note this site is still under construction; some links are not yet active, as content is still being created/updated. Check back often to continue your exploration.
