What is the fundraising requirement?
Shooters are asked to pledge that they will make a best efforts attempt to raise at least $100 in donations.
What happens if I don't raise the minimum?
We'll bet you can. Once you start, you'll be surprised at how eager people are to donate to this cause. In the event that you don't, your options are: (1) Choose to participate anyway. The money that you've already raised will still benefit Hoops4Camp! (2) "Self pledge" on a credit card to cover the remaining amount.
Will donations made by check be posted on my Personal Page?
Yes, they will. It will just take a little bit longer to post than credit card donations, which appear immediately.

Participants.
Will there be a maximum number of shooters, or will you take as many people as you can get?
Our primary goal is creating and providing a safe, nurturing, and enjoyable environment for those participating in Hoops4Camp. While we will try to accommodate as many participants as possible, we will close registration as necessary to ensure the safety of the shooters and volunteers, and to make each participant's experience a fulfilling one. Don't be left out - Register Today!
Can I form a team?
Yes! Forming a team is a great way to fundraise and have fun with family or friends. Simply follow the instructions on the registration page to enlist as a team rather than an individual participant.
