  • Change for Miles: Earn 10,000 bonus points for each full Change for Miles bottle returned to MPCS before June 13, 2:00pm. For the duration of the game, bottles can be collected or returned at the MPCS lobby, Monday through Thursday (8am – 5pm), Friday (8am – 4pm), and Saturday (10am-2pm).  Note:  On Saturday, May 30 bottle pick up and drop off will be located at 2330 Johnston Street (Blackham Coliseum) at the GOA Kickoff.  Note: Extra points are not awarded immediately; they will be added to your totals within 24 hours of submission.  If you are not able to travel to the MPCS office to return full bottles, you may earn 10,000 bonus points for each $20 donation made via Venmo.
