AN UP TO DATE LIST OF RAFFLE DONATORS IS AVAILABLE AT THE MEET PAGE ON THE WEBSITE.

Pre-paid Meet Registration – http://www.pfht.org/pre-paid-field-meet-registration/
By using the pre-paid meet registration you will save $10 dollars off the registration itself. Pre-paying saves you time at registration (your packet will be ready to go, including your license plate if you pre-pay your dues for 3 years) as well as saving the club volunteers time at the registration table.
The pre-pay form will forward the total price directly to the paypal payment portal, thus allowing you to pay with your existing paypal account or just by traditional credit card payment.
If you have any problems do not hesitate to contact your club officers to help you out!

RSVP Only Meet Registration – http://www.pfht.org/rsvp-only-field-meet-registration/
This link is a way for members and non members alike to register for the meet and confirm banquet reservations without pre-paying. It will send the meet team a confirmation with your meet registration and banquet count for file.
Payment will be due to the registration table at check in, but your information packet should be ready to go!
Dues confirmations are not available on this form, so if you’d like to or need to renew your dues you will also take care of that at the meet registration table.
