Event checkin tool
Access
- Direct link

How to use
- Click the link above and login with your Google account that is a member of one of the groups with access.
- Once you're logged in, give it a minute and it'll load a list of all of the upcoming classes.
- Click on the class you're checking people in for and give it a minute to load the list of registrants.
- When a registrant shows up for the class, click on the big red 'X' button next to their name and it will turn into a green check mark to indicate that they've been checked in.
- If you accidentally click the wrong name, don't worry; just click it again and it will go back to a red 'X' and un-check them in
- Please make sure that all the registrants are marked as paid and that they all have a waiver filled out.
- If the checkin tool is showing that the registrant doesn't have a waiver, or that the waiver is an old waiver, have them fill one out.
