Registration Transfers
The organizing committee of the Credit Union Cherry Blossom is allowing accepted runners who cannot participate in the race to transfer their registration to runners who did not get accepted into the event. The transfer period begins Monday February 1, 2010 at 10:00 A.M. All transfers must be completed by 11:59 P.M. on Sunday, February 28, 2010. No transfers will be accepted after this date.

Overview of the Transfer Process

Number transfers are initiated by registered runners seeking to transfer their numbers. Upon clicking the link below, the individual transferring a number will be taken to a "Transfer Number" form which he or she will complete and submit. Once this form is submitted, the sender will be emailed an electronic transfer code within a few minutes. This code should be sent to the recipient of the transferred number. The recipient must use the code and enter the race within 72 hours of the time at which is was issued to the sender. The code becomes void after 72 hours.

The transferee (the person accepting the transferred registration) will pay the $12.50 transfer fee when he or she completes an entirely new application for entry into the race. The registration of the sender will be dropped from the race.

Transfer Rules

Here are some additional rules governing the transfer process.

  1. All transfers by runners entered in the 10 Mile must go to individuals wishing to run the 10 Mile, and transfers by runners entered in the 5K Run Walk must go to individuals wishing to participate in the 5K Run Walk. Ten mile entrants cannot transfer to individuals wanting to participate in the 5K, and 5K entrants cannot transfer to individuals wanting to participate in the 10 Mile. The entry fees for each race are: $38.20 (including service fee) for the 10 Mile, $27.60 (including service fee) for the 5K.
  2. If the original registrant ordered an Upgrade shirt, the upgrade transfers to the individual receiving the registration. Unfortunately we cannot change the upgrade size because the upgrades have been pre-ordered.
  3. If the original registration ordered the standard cotton shirt, there will not be an opportunity for the new registrant to order the Performance Upgrade shirt at this time.
  4. There will be a $12.50 (including service fee) transfer fee which will be paid by the individual accepting the transferred registration. Reimbursement of the entry fee to the original registrant must be handled privately by the two parties involved in the transaction.
  5. The Credit Union Cherry Blossom does not condone the charging of fees over the standard entry fees for each event for a transferred registration. Posts offering or seeking numbers at fees in excess of the standard entry fee are subject to removal from the message board.
