June Mini Trials
June 30, 2024
Opening Date: May 16 'Early Bird' Discount ENDS June 4th Closing Date: June 18
Please Note:
Due to too many competitors who submit incomplete entries and not responding to e-mails, text messages or voice mails, ALL INCOMPLETE ENTRIES WILL BE PUT ON THE WAIT LIST UNTIL COMPLETE. You will receive an e-mail when your entry is received, READ IT. It will tell you if you are missing anything, If you do NOT receive an e-mail CHECK YOUR ENTRY STATUS. All all 'early bird' entries that are not complete by June 4th will loose the 'early bird' discount and will have to pay back the discount using the Additional Fes link. Additionally any entry that is NOT complete by closing date, June 18th, will be assessed a late fee of $25 that can also be paid by using the same link. We are not trying to make money from you, we are trying to teach you to get your entries completed in a timely fashion. To those who send in complete and correct entries, thank you!
