Dear participants,
It is with great pleasure that we confirm your registration to the 8th Edition of Le 24h de Tremblant. We thank you so much, on behalf of the children, for joining us in this fund raising event which will benefit to the Fondation Centre de cancérologie Charles-Bruneau, the Sens Foundation and the Tremblant Foundation.
You will find below all of the pertinent information with regards to this ski racing event, team registration, lodging and various procedures.
PARTICIPANTS REGISTRATION
Every member of your team must register online before the captain show up at the registration table during the event.
DONATION
Our new online registration and donations tool will help you increase the funds you raise. This simple, rapid process will allow you to encourage your friends, family, colleagues and contacts from Tremblant to Timbuktu to donate to the children. Once your team is registered, you can send an email that introduces the 24h and lets you ask all recipients to support you in your fundraising. A generic email is provided, which you can modify so that it represents you more personally. Then the donor can, in just a few clicks, make a credit card donation.
For donations via cheque or cash, fill out the donations form. If possible, send your donations to the foundation in advance, prior to December 10. Otherwise, you can always bring them with you and hand them in when you pick up your participation bib.
A minimum donation of $100 per participant or $3 per kilometers per team is required (excluding corporate packages). Please note that if this amount has not been received, your registration cannot be completed and your team bib cannot be handed out. Tax receipts will be issued for all donations of $20 or more.
