SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the time limits for RFL (Relay for Life) fundraisers, clarifying that there is no strict duration limit imposed on these events. Users noted that while the standard setup on PWS (Personal Web Site) allows for a 6-week period from the show date to closing, fundraisers can be organized monthly without restrictions. Participants emphasized the importance of aligning fundraiser timelines with order fulfillment expectations and the typical "15th of the next month" deadlines for specials.

HO will give permission for PWS links for FRs for a month, and when you set one up on PWS, it usually gives a 6-week time span between the show date and closing.
Technically, there isn't a limit, although people who order early in the period will want their things, just like pre-orders on a regular show. And there's still the usual "15th of the next month" deadlines for the specials.
