Classic Q & A

WHAT IS THE BP CLASSIC?

It is the largest employee-run athletic event of its kind in the world.   It features athletic events, charitable fund raising activities, and a volunteer community project in the host city.  More info…

WHY WOULD I WANT TO PARTICIPATE?

You’ll meet and build networks with people from across the globe.   You’ll help raise money for people less fortunate, and work on meaningful volunteer projects that help promote our image in the community.

DO I HAVE TO PAY TO ATTEND?

Every participant must pay their own travel expenses and might have to use vacation time to attend.

HOW DO I GET INVOLVED?

Each site has one team coordinator.   Several locations already have existing coordinators, but if a location does not have a coordinator, please become one yourself and get your location involved.   For information on how to organize your group and get them entered, contact the planning committee of the upcoming BP Classic.   (This contact information can be found on the Torch Classic home page.)   Once you’ve done this, you’ll join the list of those coordinators already active in the Torch Classic.

DO I HAVE TO PLAY ON A TEAM OR PARTICIPATE IN A SPORT TO ATTEND?

Absolutely not!   You can come by yourself or with a group. If you would like to play a sport but don’t have a team, we will place you on a team from another location who may need extra team members. If you don’t want to participate in sports, but would like to volunteer for something else, we will gladly get you involved.   Or you can just come and watch.

HOW DO I REGISTER TO ATTEND?

We ask that everyone that wants to attend or participate to click on the Registration link on the home page and fill out the registration form. This is required for many reason, but mainly to make sure that we have your shirt size, what events you wish to participate in or volunteer to help out.

HOW DO I REGISTER FOR HOTEL ACCOMMODATIONS?

You will need to register with the hotel direct. Their contact info can be found on the event link page.
