Just after I wrote the post below about sending in my medical release form for the 3Day I checked my email to find an email from the TampaBay Coaches saying I am now cleared by their medical staff and I can now do the online check in process whenever I'm ready. There are 5 steps I have to do when completeing the online check in process:

1. View the safety video and take a short safety quiz.

2. Review your fundraising summary.
If you have not yet reached your fundraising minimum, you have plenty of options. All donations will continue to post to your fundraising account as they are received, up until the event and even afterwards. (Please note that mailed donations can take four weeks to post to your fundraising account.)

In order to complete online check-in, you will be given the opportunity to make a delayed self-donation. A delayed self-donation will only be processed if you still have an outstanding fundraising balance four weeks AFTER the 3-Day has ended and only for the remaining balance. Click the “delayed self-donation” button to choose this option. Alternatively, you can make an “instant self-donation” which would be charged immediately to the credit card you authorized for payment.

If you would rather wait until you have reached your fundraising minimum before completing check-in, simply exit the program and log back in at another time. When you log in, you will automatically be taken to the step where you left off. Remember, you will want to complete online check-in by October 3 in order to have your event credential mailed to you before the event (see the Event Credentials paragraph below.)

3. Confirm meal service preferences.

4. Purchase towel service (optional).

5. Select your tentmate.
Select the person you plan to tent with or choose to be randomly assigned a tentmate of the same gender. If you are a member of a team, and complete online check-in before September 19, you will be automatically assigned neighboring tents with your team members.
