Sign-Up Details:
Due to the more advanced curriculums we want to keep the instructor to participant ratio higher than day 1, and thus will limit the amount of event signups.
**IMPORTANT NOTE** - you must signup online for the event, as well as come to an inperson session this week to pickup your wristband which is required to attend the event!
Note: You can pickup wristbands at gear hours, or Monday 3:30-4:30, or Wednesday 11-12 at the gear locker
