Releasor:______Address: ______If under 18, parent must sign Sorry, no refunds, no transfers-not fair to folks on the wait list nor the Fire Company. Some folks have argued that if they cancel, then we can let somebody else in..well, not everyone is sitting on the edge of their chair waiting for my last minute call, and since all food is purchased in advance based on sales, the fire company loses money on wasted food. So please work with me on this! We are fortunate that so many people enjoy this ride, but rulz iz rulz... and we thank you for understanding the logistics of putting on an event of this magnitude. And if you are reading this, then you probably are not the people I'm writing to! LOL!
