      NAYCC Q&A

      Mexico, North American Youth Championships


      SEVERAL ADDITIONAL PARENTAL QUESTIONS ABOUT THE NAYCC 2009

      We had an “off-day” yesterday as we were attending several situations in our business on a busy Monday, yet we appreciate the questions coming into our “bureau” for answering.

      1. Is the taxi at the airport pre-paid or do we pay the taxi when we arrive at the hotel?

      The airport taxi is pre-paid in order to avoid the trampling of tourists, so their fee is paid at a booth. My wife Claudia Munoz as well as my teenage daughter Faith will be receiving the American and Canadian Delegations at the airport on October 1, 2009. For those that have participated in international tournaments, you know that never has a Head of Delegation or an assistant ever waited on you in an airport – we are to break that mold. Because we realize that their is a language issue, Claudia my wife, will be at the airport to receive you and make sure that you get on the correct taxi with clear indications to the driver. I will be at the hotel lobby waiting for both delegations. We had always stated the things we would do differently if we ever were in the position to head a team, now is our chance. We hope that the standard we set will forever be followed by other delegations. The only family we might not be able to provide airport service is for the parents of Deepak Aaron who arrive on September 30 at 8:50 p.m. We also should be arriving on the 30th, but after a long 20-hour drive from the U.S.-Mexico border. I might be to knocked out to get out to the airport. By the way, the picture of the vehicule you see above, it is called a “PULMONIA”. Those carts are the taxis used in Mazatlan, however, from the airport to the city, you will probably ride in a regular vehicule.

      2. What is the hotel website address?
