Title: 2012 Black Bear Rally - Worker Notice
Post by Dave Cotie on 03/28/12 at 22:33:43

Heads up!

Maple Leaf Rally Club will be presenting the 2012 Black Bear Rally on Saturday, July 14, 2012. We will be welcoming back our sponsors, Davenport Subaru, Bancroft Motors and Clearwater Design.

Ontario’s only full stand-alone Regional event has moved to mid-July and the location has moved from McArthur’s Mills to Gilmour, Ontario, so we wanted to get an early note out to our workers to reserve the date. We will need lots of help. Many amateur radio operators, timing marshals, traffic control marshals and crowd control marshals will be required.

Stage notes will again be provided again by the organizers along with two recce passes of every stage – some on Friday evening and the rest on Saturday morning, so we need a few volunteers on Friday as well to assist with the recce, however as usual the bulk of the workers will be needed by 9:30-10:00 A.M. on Saturday.

So please mark July 13 and 14 on your calendar!

All workers will receive a free ticket to the Awards Banquet, as well as Subsidized Accommodations.

Note - we also need lots of volunteers for a Road Work Day on Saturday, June 16th.

To volunteer email - blackbear.volunteers@mlrc.ca

Does this mean that the routes have changed or are we still basicly using the same ones as the previous years.

The stages will be similar, but not identical, to last year.

As of this weekend we will be officially 2 months away from the start of the 2012 Black Bear Rally, so I figured I better kick off the official worker recruitment period.

AS USUAL - We will need lots of help! Many amateur radio operators, timing marshals, traffic control marshals and crowd control marshals will be required.
