Pines Worker Notice Sept 15
09/15/14 at 22:42:27
 
It’s that time again – the Rally of the Tall Pines committee has been hard at work and it’s time to get the workers signed up.

Hope you have kept the November 28-29 weekend open on your calendar. Note – we are running a week later than usual again this year!  As the  Pines keeps growing and adding exciting new features, our needs for volunteers are greater than ever. So please pass this message on to others.

Check out the Pines website at www.tallpinesrally.com for details.

While on the website, if you have not already registered for 2014, please go to the worker section and register. We have tried to keep the process very straightforward for you. So whether you registered as a worker previously or are a first-time registrant, go to the Worker tab on the website, then click on ‘Register’ and follow the cues from there to either update your profile or to create a new profile.  Note – be sure to answer at the top ‘Yes’ to “I am registering as a worker for the Rally of the Tall Pines 2014.”  If you are stuck, email me at ross@tallpinesrally.com for assistance.  When you have completed your registration or update, click on ‘Submit’ at the bottom of the page. We need all of you, including committee, stewards etc. to register, as we work extensively with the database to make plans. Note – we have made a number of changes to the Worker Registration form this year. Some fields that we seldom used have been eliminated, some new ones have been added (electronic timing) and a few have been modified. Another significant change is in volunteering for Thursday. Our needs of help on Thursday are very specific and mostly require experienced help. Contact us directly about Thursday tasks.

As in the past we are assisting workers with subsidized accommodations. See ‘Accommodations’ in the Worker section for full details and for online payment. Subsidized accommodations will be provided once again at Elmer’s Hunt Camp, at Limerick Lake Lodge and at Cedar Ridge Camp. If you stay two nights, you pay for the first night and the rally pays for the second. Anyone staying three nights should first check with Ross re subsidy. To assist workers in the Registration process and in finding accommodations at the Pines we have Trish Groom waiting to assist you re accommodations and both Trish Groom & Greg McGrath re other Registration questions. If you have questions, one of us will be sure to reply. You can contact Trish at accommodations@tallpinesrally.com .  In addition there are many other worker perks including free Tall Pines merchandise, a free post-rally dinner and being entered in a draw for a kayak, courtesy of Clearwater Design.

With a super compact Route Plan and Schedule, we are able to squeeze two passes of recce for all stages into Friday, so we will need helpers to supervise that all day. Meanwhile we will be doing the usual final route preparation, so we will need just a few workers on Thursday and lots of helpers on Friday.  In addition Shakedown is scheduled on Friday evening. The rally runs all day Saturday as usual, finishing with the Awards Banquet on Saturday evening, at the Bancroft Fish & Game Club.

Rally Headquarters will be at the Dungannon Rec Centre on Hwy. 62 south.  Virtually  all activities except the Banquet will take place there.  The official WORKERS’ MEETING will be held there at the  9 P.M. on Friday evening.

We also need lots of help on the WORK DAY on SATURDAY, OCTOBER 25.  Please advise if you can attend then by e mailing Ross Wood directly at ross@tallpinesrally.com  Anyone who assists on the Work Day will receive a $10 subsidy on the RallyCross on Sunday. Note – competitors are invited to assist on the Work Day.  This not only offers them an opportunity to contribute to the event, but also affords a chance to preview the stages.

Note – we will again be using the RallySport Ontario electronic timing equipment. If you already have experience with the equipment  and would like to work with it at the Pines, please indicate specifically what you would like to do on your Registration form.

If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me or Trish or Greg.



Ross Wood, Clerk of the Course
