Registration Process

2010 Registration Form We have a new registration process this year due to popularity of the event! Registrations will be accepted via mail or drop off to one of our facilities until Sunday, March 21st. All registration forms must be filled out completely with payment, and turned in by 6 p.m. March 21st to be entered into the lottery. Lottery for registrations into the Mini HaHa will be held on March 22nd. The lottery will randomly select and then register participants until all registrations received have been entered, or the maximum capacity of 500 participants has been met. If we receive more than 500 registration forms during the lottery process, participants will be placed on our waitlist. Any registrations received after March 21st will be held until the lottery process has been completed. If remaining spots exist after the lottery process, we will open registration via on-line, phone in, drop off, beginning March 24th at 8 a.m. We will accept a waitlist for the event. We will notify participants if they have been successfully registered via email and we will send out a confirmation with the receipt via email or mail if email is not available.
