The system will not let me continue checking out.  What might be causing an error?

  • The system requires specific information in most fields to move forward. Please review all fields on the page that are required (designated with a *).
  • Addresses outside of United States may need to be adjusted based on the system.
  • Addresses containing special characters such as / may cause an error
  • Due to confidential information entered into this system, an automatic timer has been set for each registration. If the page has been left open, try starting from the beginning of the process to add the event again.
