FAQ:
Why do we fundraise?
In addition to our registration fees (with CHWC), we also have a number of transportation costs and overall trip expenses. Fundraising also allows us to keep the costs lower for each person registering AND support those who are in need of a scholarship.
What if I am unable to attend one of the fundraising dates?
Our fundraising efforts impact everyone. Please let Glenda Trytko and Stephen Baker know when conflicts arise and keep open communication! You may be asked to pay a fee for your absence.
Who is invited to go to CHWC?
