Event Policies (continued)
Pets
We love our four-legged friends, but unfortunately we cannot allow pets to participate in the event.
Vehicles
There will be limited space at rest stops and pits stops for vehicles. For safety reasons, please discourage friends and family from driving along the route. Pulling over or honking at walkers can create a safety hazard.
Alcohol or Drugs
The use of alcohol and illegal drugs is strictly forbidden at the school and along the route. The exception, of course, is prescription medication and the proper use of over-the-counter medication.
Inappropriate Behavior
The Wild West MS Walkabout Officials reserve the right to expel a participant if that participant poses a risk or danger to themselves, other walkers and volunteers, and/or the general public.
Friends and Family
Friends and family members may visit you at the start line, the final finish line festival, or cheer you on at the designated lunch stops. Friends and family may join you on the route only if they are official Crew members or Volunteers. For your safety and the safety of your fellow walkers, friends and family may not drive alongside you during the event or visit you at rest stops or pit stops where space is very limited.
Leaving the route
Support will be provided throughout the event. Support will not be provided outside the parameters of the walk. If you decided to leave the route for any reason, please notify an event official when you leave and when you return.
Refunds
If you change your mind or decided for any reason not to participate in the Wild West MS Walkabout, please note that your registration fee as well as your recorded donations are nonrefundable. The fees and donations will be used to support those living with MS just as if you had participated in the event.
Our Pledge to You
You will be fully supported on every step of your journey. Your commitment is to walk and raise funds. Our commitment is to worry about everything else. Our goal is to make your journey as fun and as hassle-free as possible so that during each day of physical and emotional extremes, you can relax with each other and enjoy the feelings of accomplishment and fulfillment you have worked so hard to achieve.
