The safety of our volunteers is our #1 concern.  Return our cart to the unloading area ASAP so others can use it.

27  Rental tents are your responsibility  You need to have a team representative on site for set-up AND take-down of your rental tent  Remember tents and chairs must be on a tarp and cannot use stakes!  Camp sites are approximately 20’X30’ again this year  Teams with large tents may sign-up to begin set-up and unloading beginning at 10 a.m.

28 1. All credit card donations must be made online. 2. Cash/checks may be turned in at Bank Night or the day of Relay. 3. When turning in cash/checks, you must fill out an accounting form and envelope. You must write your team and participant name(s) & $$ amount on the form, which should also match the amount on the envelope. 4. If several members of your team have money to turn in, one accounting form can be used per team but the dollar amount must be labeled clearly on each participant’s line on the form in order to give the credit that’s due. 5. Coins are accepted; we prefer that they’re rolled, but contained in a Ziploc bag is acceptable. The bag then must be placed in your accounting envelope. 6. Triple check your money calculation! Any $$$ discrepancies will be returned to the Team Captain for a recount.
