Remind your cheering squad to bring out their noise makers, bubbles and happy faces for the occasion. Swim, bike and run with us!

Registration Process

2012 Registration Forms (coming in March!) Registrations will be accepted via mail or drop off to one of our facilities until Monday, March 19th. All registration forms must be filled out completely with payment, and turned in by 9 p.m. March 19th to be entered into the lottery. Lottery for registrations into the Mini HaHa will be held on March 20th. 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. Residents of Broomfield will be entered via lottery first, then remaining spots will be filled with non-residents. Any registrations received after March 20th 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 22nd 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.
