I'm currently planning on keeping registration and prizes open through August, at the least, maybe into early September, to give people more time to participate and join up. With slow, limited openings (and none at all yet for us), I think giving people more time just makes sense. We've already got all the supplies, after all, doesn't cost us anything to extend the program.
