2015 BSA Marathon Team
Terms & Conditions
FUNDRAISING COMMITMENT
If selected, I understand that an initial $50 deposit and all additional funds raised will support the Boston Scholar Athletes, and that an additional
Boston Marathon Application fee of $325 will also be required, payable to the Boston Athletic Association. If selected, I agree to provide valid credit
card information to be charged the $50 non-refundable deposit. The BAA application fee does NOT count toward my total fundraising commitment.
The $325 owed to BAA can be paid via check or credit card (expiration date on card must be after May 2015).
I agree to raise a minimum of $6,000 by May 30, 2015 to support the Boston Scholar Athletes as part of the 2015 BSA Marathon Team.
This minimum amount is inclusive of the $50 non-refundable deposit. If selected, I understand that the Boston Scholar Athletes program will
charge my credit card for the balance I owe if I have not raised the entire amount on or before May 30, 2015 or if I withdraw from the
program after December 30, 2014.
CANCELLATION POLICY
I understand that I may cancel my participation with the BSA Marathon Team for the 2015 Boston Marathon, waiving my responsibility for the
fundraising minimum stated above, any time on or before December 30, 2014 by contacting Molly Barrett at Boston Scholar Athletes in writing. I
understand that my $50 deposit and any donations received by the Boston Scholar Athletes program on my behalf will not be refunded.
I understand that after December 30, 2014, I am solely responsible for raising or personally contributing the fundraising minimum, even if
for any reason, including injury, I am unable to run in the 2015 Boston Marathon.
I agree that I will not begin the race prior to the official start time; I will not compete in a manner which, in the judgment of the race officials, interferes
with race operations or other participants; I will not reproduce or transfer my official bib number.
REGISTRATION
I agree to pay a $325 race application fee to the Boston Athletic Association. I understand that this does NOT count toward my fundraising minimum

1. My $50 credit card non-refundable deposit that counts as my first donation toward my fundraising goal (preferred at the time of team
acceptance)
