REGISTRATION

While there is no registration fee, we encourage all registered walkers to raise funds on behalf of the Walk. Remember, 100% of donations go to research.

Go to the Registration booth if you need to do any of the following:

Register for the Walk (if you have not done so online or by mail).
Pick up your Unity Walk T-shirt (if eligible).
Registered Walkers who donate or fundraise $100 by the day of the Walk and are present at the Walk will receive a T-shirt, while supplies last, (for a team, average raised per team member is taken into account).
Turn in your donations.

Any of our Registrars can help you on the day of the Walk. Go to any seated Registrar; there are no special lines; make only one stop to pick up shirts and turn in donations. All walkers are registered as individuals, even if they are part of a team -- there is only one envelope per walker so you will be sure to get credit as the fundraiser. We recommend that you allow extra time to go through Registration.

2014 PUW DEADLINES
Team Registration Deadline: All teams must be registered prior to the day of the Walk.
(Team registrations will not be accepted on the day of the Walk.)

Deadline to Give and Turn in Donations: June 7, 2014. All donations received by June 7, 2014 will be credited to the 2014 Walk.
(Donations where all information is complete and legible will be acknowledged by July, 2014.)
