Payments must be received by the entry deadline or be subject to penalty. A late payment fee of 10% or $50, whichever is greater, will be charged after the deadline for all fees associated with national events. Should the total amount, including penalty, still not be paid as at the competition date, the athlete(s) will be scratched from the program and not permitted to compete, and advertising may not appear in the souvenir program.

Photography Fee

All athletes will pay a $10 Photography Fee. This will provide you with free access to all action shots taken by the official photographer throughout the competition. The competition personnel and the photographer cannot guarantee the number of images that will be available for each athlete/group, but every effort will be made to capture images of all participants.

We do not anticipate offering "posed" personalized shoots. Should that change, please note that the $10 photography fee paid here does not carry over to personalized shoots in any form.
