Burns says "Pre-registration forms can be filled out at various locations in Laramie such as Brown & Gold, Cross Country Connections, ACPE, Laramie Plains Federal Credit Union or you can go to our never flinch facebook page or our never flinch website."

Burns says "the purpose of the event is to raise some money to help former UW football player Weston Johnson with the cost that he's incurring for his treatment with melanoma." Burns adds "all the proceeds go to Weston as we are also selling Never Flinch T-Shirts and Bracelets as well". Burns also stated "I went to high school with Weston and he's such a great guy as he battles something as tough as this so I know I wanted to do my best to show my support for him and his family."
