Important Notice about the 2018 Registration Process – Please Read

This is our most popular event each year. In past years, the event was full after less than five minutes of registration being open. In the interest of ensuring as many families as possible are able to experience this event at least once, we have a important rules regarding registration. Here’s what you need to know:

  1. If your family attended last year’s event, we ask that you refrain from registering this year.
  2. Registration will still be first-come, first-served. It will be posted at 12 p.m. CT on Tuesday, November 27.
  3. If you complete the registration form during the open registration period, this does not guarantee your family is registered.
  4. When we’ve received ample registrations for the event, we will close the registration form.
  5. We will vet the list of registrants with the list of families who attended last year. If you attended in 2017, you will not be registered for this year’s event. The opening will instead go to a family who couldn’t attend previously.
  6. We will send an email to families who are registered, confirming your space at the event by the end of the day on Wednesday, November 28. You are officially registered once you receive this email. Included in the email will be a request to sign and return a waiver by Friday, November 30. We will also send an email to families who completed the registration form but did not make the cutoff. Finally, we will send an email to families who were close to the cut-off letting you know that you are on the wait list, should anyone who is registered learn they can no longer attend.

Thank you to everyone for your understanding and patience during the process outlined above. We are so happy that the Vikings make this event possible every year, and that our families are so eager to take part.
