Frequently Asked questions
Who can Participate?
Anyone! We are encouraging local and corporate businesses of any kind to participate, but anyone can jump. Just raise the $1000 minimum (or more!) and you're ready for your jump.
Will I get to Bungy Jump?
The team members are fundraising for the opportunity to nominate the boss for a bungy jump.
When and Where do I Toss My Boss?
The event will take place at WildPlay, Nanaimo on Friday, October 13th. A jump time will be given to your team between 3pm-6pm.
How many Team Members should I have? Should I include my Boss?
Yes, make sure to include your boss in your team. There is no maximum for the number of team members that can join in and cheer the boss on. The more the merrier!
How do I Register my Company?
First, make sure your company team has not already been registered by another team member. If your team has already been registered, refer to 'How to Join a Company Team' listed below. If your team has not been registered, click the 'Sign Up' tab, and click 'Create a Team' and fill out the form with your company information. Once your company team has been approved, you can begin building your company profile, as well as your participant profile.
How can I join my Company Team?
Follow the 'Sign Up' tab and click 'Join a Team.' Find your company name and click 'Join this Team.' You can then fill out the form to begin building your participant profile. The nominated boss and every team member must register in order to participate.
How do I Collect Donations?
Once you have created your profile, you can send out your profile link to friends and family or share over any social media platform. Encourage everyone you know to share, share, share!
How to Build my Profile?
We will provide some templates for a personalized poster and social media post. The best way to encourage donations is to personalize your profile with a photo and brief description of why your team is participating.
What is the Minimum Amount I should Fundraise? What if I Exceed the Minimum Amount?
The company team must fundraise a collective minimum of $1000 in order to nominate their boss for a bungy jump. There is no minimum requirement for each participant to raise as long as this minimum goal is met. However, to encourage teams and individuals to raise more money beyond the minimum requirement, we have included an exciting grand prize for the top fundraising team.
Who gets a Prize? What are the Prizes?
The top fundraising team will receive a FREE team building adventure valued at over $750 at WildPlay.
My Boss 'Chickened Out.' Now What?
If the boss of your company team declines to bungy jump, they may either abstain from the bungy jump entirely or nominate a teammate to take their place. If either of these options is selected, the BOSS will be required to double the donation to $2000. This ensures that companies will not be penalized for fundraising beyond the minimum amount.
