Compliance

As our team works to organize this monumental event is  seamless, we ask that you adhere strictly to our terms, and conditions and logistics. This event is regulated by the  District of Columbia's Mayor Task Force and we strive for 100% compliance.

We would be remiss if we did not note that the economy is causing difficulties for everyone. Prices are higher and customers are making smaller purchases. Our concern with the current economic situation is reflected in our NEW REDUCED VENDING FEE food vendors. Respectively, we ask that our vendors offer at least one menu item priced to accommodate our student customer.

Carefully read all materials, complete and sign all forms. We thank you for your interest in what promises to be an extraordinary event.
