Parents/Guardians

About the Event

Your student will join 1,300 students from over 50 Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky area high schools at Fifth Third Arena at the University of Cincinnati on February 15, 2025, for this overnight event to raise money for CancerFree KIDS to fund life-saving childhood cancer research.

Your Student's Requirements

• All students must raise $160 by 11:59 PM on February 3, 2025 to attend the event; the $35 registration fee does count toward this total. We have many tools and resources to support your student in their fundraising efforts. Click here to see all the resources available to help your student.
• Your student registered online and agreed to the student code of conduct. If your student breaks the code of conduct, a team member from the CancerFree KIDS staff will call you to pick up your student. You can view this document here.
• Students were asked at the time of registration to inform us of any medical concerns and given space to do so in the registration process.

Parent/Guardian Responsibilities

• The event starts February 15, 2025 at 7 PM and your student will be dismissed at 7 AM the following morning (February 16th). We recommend dropping off/picking up your student and there will be clear directions of where to do so. If your student is driving themselves or are in a car driven by another student, parking will be available in nearby parking garages for a fee.
• If your student will be dropped off late or needs to be picked up early, complete the Late Arrival or Early Release forms by clicking the links here. Please submit these forms by February 10, 2025.
• Every parent/guardian agrees to the parent/guardian waiver either at their student's time of registration or via e-mail after their student registers. Here is the parent/guardian waiver you agreed to. Students MUST have parent/guardian agreement to this waiver to attend the event.

Chaperone Information

• Each team is required to provide a chaperone (age 25+) to help with any issues or needs for your student's team. CancerFree KIDS will be conducting background checks on all chaperones and volunteers.
• If you are your student's chaperone, please complete the Chaperone registration form here.

Things to Note

• Students will be active throughout the night, so comfortable clothes and gym shoes are suggested. T-shirts will be provided to wear during the night.
• Food is provided for all participants, so NO food or drink will be permitted to be brought into Fifth Third Arena at the University of Cincinnati.
