FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THE FUNDS ARE UNRESTRICTED AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE?
Since you are responsible for the collection of all monies, you may begin using it as soon as
you receive it. At the conclusion of your sales program, you submit only the TaxSlayer Bowl’s
portion in one single payment of $10 per ticket sold. It’s completely up to you how, when,
where, why and what on the money will be spent with no questions asked by us. We do
always love to hear your stories though of how the money is used if you’re willing to share.
HOW LONG IS THE SCHOOL FUNDRAISING PROGRAM AVAILABLE?
Registration for the school fundraising program ends on October 31, 2017, and all sales must
be completed by November 30, 2017. Each participating school club/organization will
determine the timing & length of the program’s sales within the allotted time frame (Now –
November 30)
IS THERE A CERTAIN NUMBER OF TICKETS THAT MY GROUP MUST SELL?
No. You may sell any number of tickets. No matter the number sold, you keep $15 per ticket
to spend on your project. Only 5,000 tickets have been allocated to this program – when that
number has been reached, the TaxSlayer Bowl will cease ticket sales.
HOW DO I HANDLE HANDICAPPED SEATING NEEDS?
To purchase a ticket in the handicapped seating area, the ticket purchaser should mark the
“Handicapped Seating” option on the Ticket Order Form. You, (the Program Coordinator), are
their contact to reserve handicapped seats. (Please write your name and phone number on
the Ticket Order Form) Please note: In order to accommodate all handicapped persons, the
TaxSlayer Bowl asks that each handicapped person be limited to purchasing one additional
companion seat in the handicapped section. When you remit your final ticket order form to
the TaxSlayer Bowl office on November 30th, please include a list of all handicapped seating
needs.
WHEN IS THE $10 PER TICKET DUE TO THE TAXSLAYER BOWL?
The $10 portion collected per ticket must be remitted to the TaxSlayer Bowl at the time of pick
up (See Below) No personal checks will be accepted.
HOW ARE THE TICKETS DISTRIBUTED?
Each participating school club/organization will be responsible for the distribution of game
tickets to their customers. Game tickets will be available for pick-up at the TaxSlayer Bowl
office located at EverBank Field on December 4 – 6, 2017 between 8:30 am and 5:00 pm.
CAN ONLY STUDENTS/PARENTS BUY TICKETS?
