Bloomsday entry deadline Sunday; April 23 online deadline for $14.00 fee

Wednesday, April 19, 2006

Spokane, WA—Runners, joggers and walkers who haven’t already entered this year’s Bloomsday have a few more days to do so—online only—before late registration fees kick in. Online registrants have until Sunday, April 23 to take advantage of the $14.00 entry fee.

"We like to leave the online deadline open as long as possible so people can take advantage of Bloomsday’s low $14.00 entry fee," said Bloomsday Race Director Don Kardong. "For anyone who procrastinates past the 23, though, the fee jumps to $30.00."

Those who miss the April 23 deadline will still be able to enter online until April 30, but the late entry fee of $30.00 (plus processing fee) will be in effect. After the 30, late entrants will need to wait until Bloomsday weekend to sign up. Late registration will be available during normal Check-In hours at the Ag Trade Center—Friday, May 5 from 11:30 a.m. – 8:00 p.m., and Saturday, May 6 from 9:00 a.m. until 6:30 p.m. Race entry is not available on Sunday, May 7.
