Each participant will receive a t shirt, with August 26 listed as the cutoff date to be guaranteed a t shirt. Team registration requires a team name and at least one person to register when the team is created; a team must have six or more participants to qualify for the team pricing structure.

The event takes place during Hunger Action Month and includes a community food drive.
