​Portsmouth Naval Shipyard’s CFC Kick-Off event will be a Car Show for employees of the shipyard.  It will take place on Wednesday, October 16th, 2019 from 11:00 am – 12:30 pm.  Set up for charities will be 10:00 am.   
               
Please email Dominique.m.lapanne@navy.mil by Friday October 4th, 2019 if you’d like to be put on the lottery list to participate in this event. Selected charities will be notified via email with more details on the event.                                        

CFC-related events for the zones listed below will be posted on the local zone website calendars (a link to each zone calendar can be found below). Don’t be alarmed if you visit the calendars and don’t see many events right now; they are just starting to populate the calendar with events and more will be posted as agencies make their CFC plans.
 
Here are four simple steps to CFC event participation:
1. Visit the local zone event calendar (see zone list below).
2. Click on the calendar item of interest to learn details of the event.
4. Click the registration form link for charities, fill out the form, agree to event participation guidelines and then click “submit.”
5. Receive a confirmation email from the organizer about attending, or in cases where there are space limitations, that you’ve been randomly selected to participate.
 
Clicking on the calendar item of interest will display the following information:
1.   Basic information about the event (who, what, when, where)
2.   Deadline for charities to register
3.   Security requirements
4.   Contact information
5.   Web-based charity registration form for charities to complete if they are interested in attending
6.   Required documentation that must be read and agreed upon with rules for event participation
 
In some cases, the sign-up process may vary slightly, so please pay close attention to the instructions given on the website calendar.

Please note: completing the registration form does not guarantee you a spot at the event. If more charities sign up for an event than the space can accommodate, a random drawing of all charities that signed up by the deadline will be completed and charities that were selected in the “lottery” will be notified via email. For all events, only selected charities will receive an email confirming attendance to the event with additional details. Please do not show up to attend a CFC event unless you receive a confirmation email from the event organizer!
