HOW TO ORDER YOUR HOMESCHOOL TICKETS
1.  Fill out order form or include all pertinent information on a sheet of paper. PLEASE PRINT LEGIBLY.

2.  Total the tickets ordered. Note: You may request (1) free chaperone ticket per eight (8) students. Include $11 per additional ticket not included free.

3.  Total the amount due.

PLEASE NOTE: In order to cover our administration expenses, HEAV charges a $0.50 fee per student ticket/wristband. HEAV also charges a $2.65 fee per total order; this is for sending your tickets via trackable mail. This is for your protection and for record keeping. The amount is the same whether you order two tickets or 200, so you may want to consider combining orders with a friend or with your support group. There is not a separate postage fee. Although every precaution will be taken to safeguard your order, we cannot be responsible for tickets lost in the mail. You may arrange to pick up your tickets in person at the HEAV office before the fair; if you make such arrangements, you may omit the $2.65 fee and mark on your form that you will pick up the tickets. Tickets unclaimed at the HEAV office will not be refunded.

4.  Send completed order form with check or money order (payable to HEAV) to HEAV State Fair Coordinator, P.O. Box 6745, Richmond, VA 23230.

5.  Orders received through September 1 will be processed September 4-8 and then mailed. Additional ticket quantities will be limited; orders received after September 1 may be picked up at the HEAV office, or will be mailed if time allows.
