FAQ & TIPS

Ducking Around Jeep Run

FAQ

• CAN EVERYONE IN THE JEEP COLLECT A DUCK?

  • NO, Only one (1) duck per Jeep, with a beverage purchase and card punch. There are only enough ducks for the registered Jeeps and the staff at the participating locations know to give out only one duck.

• DO WE NEED TO PURCHASE A DRINK?

  • YES, Only one beverage of your choice needs to be purchased to get your duck and card punched, this could be a soda and so on.

• I'M ONLY IN IT FOR THE DUCKS!

  • Great! If you are just going around and wanting to collect ducks, you still will need to purchase a beverage of your choice, but don't need to get your card punched. The card is to show you have been to all the locations and then can be entered for cool prizes at Boss Cider on main street... but why not get that punch and enter to win cool stuff!

• DO WE NEED TO BE THERE TO WIN PRIZES AT THE END?

  • YES, Only present Jeepers will win prizes.

• WHAT IF THERE IS A LINE AT A LOCATION?

  • We are expecting some backups at certain locations. The staff will do their best to get to everyone as quickly as they can. Ways to avoid waiting around is to maybe have one person in your group go and get a drink, duck and card punched, rather than waiting for your group to get drinks... this would be worst case.  

• CAN I STILL PARTICIPATE, EVEN THOUGH IT IS SOLD OUT?

  • YES & NO, There is only enough ducks, cards and maps for the allotted Jeeps that were sold. The closed off Leslie Main Street is for participating Jeeps only, however we can't stop you from going to those locations, and we welcome you to stop down and check out all the Jeeps and live music, food, etc. You will just need to park somewhere other than Main Street.

• THEY DIDN'T PUNCH MY CARD?

  • The only way that you would not get a card punch is if you didn't wait around or didn't ask. To get a duck, you will need to talk to staff members at that location and they are the one to punch the cards.

• WHAT IF I'M NOT BACK BY 6PM

  • No Worries, we hope everyone will be back by then, but understand things come up. The reason you would want to be back by 6pm, is to get your last duck and card punch at Boss Cider and be entered into the drawings. Also Main Street will fill up fast and then will flow around to the overflow parking around the corner, so if you want to be on Main, then do your best to be there by 6ish.

• WHAT IF I WANT TO LEAVE MAIN BEFORE ITS OVER?

  • We have parking staff that can help guide you out, just look for people that are in vests or staff shirts. Should be the same that guided you in.

• DO ALL THE LOCATIONS TAKE CREDIT OR DEBIT CARDS?

  • NO, OT'S (ONONDAGA TAVERN) is cash only, but they do have an ATM... they are the only one on the run that do not take credit or debit cards.

• DO WE ALL GET ZOMBIE DUCKS FROM AWAKEN?

  • The first 100 registered Jeeps are guaranteed a zombie duck from Awaken, which have already been accounted for since it has sold out online. If they have extras they will had them out to the on-site registers. 

• I CAN'T GET TO CHECK-IN BY 2PM?

  • Sorry, you must arrive between Noon and 2pm to check in, we will stop check in at 2pm. If there is still a line at 2pm, we will finish check in for those Jeeps.

• I CAN'T MAKE THE EVENT NOW, CAN I GET A REFUND?

  • No Refunds, there were a lot of people that missed out on this event and there is no way to put tickets back up for sale last minute. We would suggest finding a fellow Jeeper that might take the ticket off your hands.

 

 

 

 

TIPS

• MAYBE DON'T GO TO THE CLOSEST LOCATION FIRST. MOST WILL HEAD THAT WAY.

• SOME PLACES HAVE LIMITED PARKING IF YOU CAN'T GET A PARKING PLACE, TRY DROPPING OFF SOMEONE FROM YOUR GROUP AND HAVE THEM GO IN WHILE YOU CIRCLE THE BLOCK.

• HAVE CASH ON HAND. THIS MAY SPEED THINGS UP WITH PURCHASING AND TIPPING, ALSO ONE LOCATION DOES NOT TAKE CARDS.

• COME TO REGISTRATION SOONER THAN LATER. THIS WILL GIVE YOU MORE TIME TO GET TO EACH LOCATION. 

• MAKE SURE YOU GET YOUR CARD PUCHED. EACH LOCATION HAS THEIR OWN SHAPE CARD PUNCH, SO YOU CAN'T HAVE ONE LOCATION DO AN EXTRA PUNCH, BECAUSE YOU MISSED THE LAST ONE.

• THE SOONER YOU GET DOWN TO MAIN STREET, THE BETTER CHANCE YOU HAVE TO PARK ON MAIN STREET AND NOT THE OVERFLOW LOTS.

• FOOD AND DRINKS WILL BE AVAILABLE AT THE FINISH ON MAIN STREET. THERE ARE TWO LOCATIONS WITH GREAT FOOD AND DRINKS, SO DON'T WORRY IF YOU DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO GET SOMETHING TO EAT ON THE RUN, YOU CAN ONCE YOU'RE DOWN TOWN.

• DON'T READ THE MAP WHILE DRIVING, HAVE YOUR CO-PIOLIT DO IT!

• LOOK THE MAP OVER FIRST. AWAKEN HAS PLENTY OF PARKING SPOTS AFTER YOU REGISTER, YOU CAN PULL IN THERE TO FIGURE OUT YOUR BEST ROUTE TO TAKE.

• TAKE LOTS OF PHOTOS AND POST SOME! WE WANT THIS EVENT TO GROW, SO PLEASE TAKE PHOTOS AND TAGE DUCKING AROUND JEEP RUN, BOSS CIDER, AWAKEN HAUNT... THIS WILL GET THE EXCITEMENT GOING FOR NEXT YEAR... YES NEXT YEAR!!!
