  • Please use the label provided here to ship your project. We would prefer it you could copy it on to a bright colour of paper.

  • Projects should be shipped after April 15 (once you have a Project Number) and must be received by us by May 8.
  • Do not under any circumstances send your project directly to the University of Calgary or the Olympic Oval as they will not be prepared to accept it.

  • If there is more than one piece use one label for each item.
  • If you follow these directions, your project will be waiting for you at your location in the Olympic Oval.
