Pledge Form

For those of you who have raised money for Ramona, here's our official pledge form! We're also going to have a donation box on site, and everyone that donates is entered into a draw for a free night's stay at the Radisson Downtown! Those who turn in pledge forms are also eligible for the draw, of course.

Prizes!

Hey all,

Just wanted to give a quick mention about the prizes we've got this year. So far I've got prizes from Moutain Eqiupment Co-op, the Winnipeg Goldeyes, and the Radisson hotel (and I'm expecting some stuff from Pepsi as well). We've got water bottles, bike lights, an MEC backpack (I want it so badly!), a stay at the Radisson hotel, and more! If you know of anyone who would like to donate a prize, have them get in touch with us!

We haven't decided what to give prizes out for yet, so if you have any ideas for fun prize categories, leave a comment!

I would also like to reiterate the fundraising aspect of this years race. Let's see how much money we can raise to help Ramona Reimer in her battle with cancer! We should have pledge forms up in a day or two. I've heard that there may even be a prize for the top fundraiser...

Early Bird Extension

We've gotten lots of people who are emailing/calling us asking about the deadline for early bird registrations. I'm happy to let you know that we are extending the deadline on these from the 15 to the 20th of September. Also, those of you who are having trouble getting your forms fully filled out by the deadline, relax! Just send a list of those on your team along (identifying the team captain) along with a cheque into us postmarked before or on the 20th and you'll still receive the early bird bonus. Just email us to let us know it's coming (or leave a comment on the blog) and send it to the address below:

Updates...

Hey all,

We were intending to put up registration forms and such up a couple days ago, but unfortunately Mark's computer was in an accident and the prognosis has not been good. Other than the video footage, all of our 8 Hours stuff was on that computer, and last I heard it's unknown if the data can be retrieved, so we may be making up the forms from scratch.

Anyway, if you are planning to enter a team, please e-mail us at 8hoursofhowardville@gmail.com The sooner we know how many teams we have the better as it makes certain planning aspects, y'know, possible. :) Thanks!

We'll get up the registration forms and stuff like that up in the next couple days.
