Anthem LemonAid FAQ's
-
- 1. When and where can I pick up my Anthem LemonAid kit?
- Kit pickup will be held at CHoR’s Brook Road campus (2924 Brook Road) on Monday, July 16th (10am – 2pm) and Tuesday, July 17th (1pm – 7pm). Kits will be located in the hospital's Auditorium. Please be sure to bring along your confirmation number and the last name of the individual who registered. You may send a representative in your place if you are unable to pick up your kit during the specified times. Kits will also be available for pickup at the Fredericksburg and Petersburg Therapy Centers - stay tuned for dates and times!

- 2. After I register a stand, what comes in my Anthem LemonAid kit?
Lemonade mix, cups, a pitcher, stickers, balloons, promotional signage and a lemonhead hat to wear. Please remember that an actual stand is not provided for you. Other than that, all you’ll need is a location, water and ice.
-
- 3. Where should I set up my stand?
- Our Walmart, Sam's Club and Panera Bread locations are great options to choose from and we already have their permission. (Available openings for these locations are listed within the Registration Form). Community swimming pools, Little League baseball fields, grocery stores, neighborhood yard sales and local businesses are great locations too…just make sure you receive permission from the owner or manager first. In many cases with a little pre-promotion, your own front yard can be the best spot!

- 4. How can I advertise my Anthem LemonAid stand?
- If you're hosting a Neighborhood Stand - put flyers in your neighbors’ mailboxes or on the community board at your pool. Place an ad in your community newsletter with the date and time of your stand and use your Facebook page to promote. If you're hosting a Business Stand - make sure your Human Resource department knows so they can help spread the word through e-mail, newsletters and employee community boards. You can also send your details to neighboring businesses asking them to stop by for a glass of lemonade. For Walmart, Sam's Club or Panera Bread stands - make sure there is a poster at your selected location advertising Anthem LemonAid weekend and have your family and friends promote your time slot on their Facebook pages. Promotional signs have already been created for you and are available to download and print HERE.

- 5. After LemonAid weekend is over, how do I turn in my money?
