Event FAQs

Are pets allowed?

For the safety and comfort of all participants, only service animals individually trained to perform tasks for a person with a disability, as defined by the ADA, are permitted on campus. Service animals must remain under the control of their handler at all times. Animals that are not housebroken or whose behavior poses a disruption or safety concern may be asked to leave campus.

Is there a rain date? Is there a fundraising minimum? Is there a theme? Can I register the day of? What if I think there was a mistake with my registration? Will there be snacks? Where do I park? Will there be prizes?
