| GSL-XVII: MISCELLANEOUS MATTERS: | ||
| A.
PLEASE HELP WITH A FINANCIAL DONATION. The GSL International Championship
must rely upon the generosity of its supporters in order to pay the expenses.
Simply, the entry fees and sponsor support DO NOT cover the enormous costs
of this International Championship. The goal of providing this forum for
modelers to gather for fun and competition must rely upon the generosity
of entrants, attendees, sponsors and all interested modelers. PLEASE, donate
any amount, large or small. Remember, your very generous contributions
make the Championship possible.
B. MAIL-IN ENTRIES: If you can't attend GSL-XVII and want to compete with a mail-in entry, please write to GSL Headquarters for a special package of information and enclose two first-class stamps. Mail your letter, with a specific request for mail-in entry information, to:
C. IN-PROGRESS DISPLAY AREA: Don't forget to bring your "in-progress" projects for display at GSL-XVII. We will provide a much larger display area for your projects at GSL-XVII than we've had previously. These projects are display-only and won't be judged, but are of great interest and inspiration to everyone in attendance. Remember, there is no entry fee for in-progress display projects. Note: You must remove your display-only models by Saturday at 5:00 p.m. because the space will be needed for the Sunday morning Awards Brunch. D. GSL INFORMATION AVAILABLE ELECTRONICALLY: Interested hobbyists every where can get the latest, up-to-date information on the GSL Championship by checking in at the GSL WEB page at: http://www.xmission.com/~msgsl/GSL or by submitting an inquiry by e-mail to msgsl@xmission.com (Mark S. Gustavson) or mjbenton@xmission.com (Mark Benton). E. PHOTOGRAPHY All entrants also understand that: 1) Their model(s) may be moved for photography by representatives of the GSL Championship and representatives of the hobby media approved by GSL, and 2) They consent to having their model(s) appear as photos and/or electronic images without limitation in publications, books, and/or web pages. By placing a model into GSL competition or placed in a GSL display, the builder/owner agrees that GSL, and any publication, may use the photographic image (however stored, reproduced and used) without compensation to the builder/owner. No model may be removed from the Contest Hall during contest hours. F. GSL-XVII COMMEMORATIVE T-SHIRTS! A souvenir GSL T-Shirt will be offered for sale at the show. These high-quality 100% cotton shirts will be screen-printed with a special commemorative "GSL XVII" logo. Shirts in sizes L, XL and XXL are available at $15.00 each, and XXXL shirts are sold at $17.00. Pre-order and pick up your shirt at registration, then wear it all weekend! See the enclosed Pre-Registration form for details. If you cannot attend GSL XVI, but would still like to be part of the GSL tradition, you can order a GSL XVII commemorative shirt - we'll ship it shortly after GSL. Use the enclosed GSL-XVII Pre-Registration and Order Form and mail it, along with your payment (including shipping), to:

LEGAL NOTICES: The Seventeenth GSL International Model Car Championship is presented under the auspices of the Utah Miniature Automotive Guild, Inc., a Region 10 IPMS chapter. While every effort is made to protect the contestant's model(s),the entrant recognizes that accidents, criminal behavior, the negligence of any person, or acts of God may result in harm to any model or person at GSL. Consequently, the contestant and all attendees, in consideration of the participation in the GSL Championship series, hereby releases the Championship, its founder, Board of Directors, publications, photographers, the host hotel and any other person from any liability whatsoever in the event of the damage to or destruction of any model, or any injury of any kind to the model or any person.
