Maple Leaf Rally Club is pleased to present the Planet Motorsport Black Bear Rally on Saturday, June 13, 2009.  Under the leadership of a new Coordinator, Donna Huber, the event is moving to a new venue – Rally Headquarters will be in McArthur’s Mills (20 minutes east of Bancroft). The stages will be run on familiar Tall Pines roads in the Egan Creek area and on McCaw Rd., a Carlow-Mayo Township road that was used in the 2006 Tall Pines.

The Bear will be a full Regional event again this year, featuring stages on three different sets of roads – the exact details TBD within the next couple of weeks.

So we need lots of help on the day of the event. 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 however  competitors are being offered 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 June 13th on your calendar and go to the rally website at   www.mlrc.ca/blackbear/index.html    to register as a worker or you can respond directly ASAP to ross.wood@sympatico.ca  to confirm your attendance.

All workers will receive a limited edition Black Bear T shirt, a free ticket to the Awards Banquet and we will provide subsidized accommodations to those who request it on a first come, first served basis.

Note - we also need volunteers for a Road Work Day on Saturday, May 30th

Ross Wood,  2009 Black Bear Chief Control Marshal
