Worker registrations are coming in steadily but we are still way below the number we need, especially for rally day Saturday, November 20, so if you have been procrastinating, please sign up ASAP. If you registered, but did not receive a confirmation from me, it likely means that your registration did not go through, so please try again.If you have any problem doing that, contact me directly at ross@tallpinesrally.com or by phone at 705-887-1130 or Jane Laan jane@tallpinesrally.com (my worker registration assistant) and one of us will assist you.  How about convincing someone else to come with you?
So to recap - to register as a worker for this year’s event,  go to the Pines website at www.tallpinesrally.com then to the ‘WORKERS’ tab then to ‘Register’ and follow the cues from there.
 

Subsidized Worker Accommodations
Have you booked your room yet?  We can only hold those rooms for so long, then will have to let them go. The online subsidized accommodations registration process is now active. Remember – you must stay at one of the approved locations to receive a subsidy.
If you have any questions, Trish Groom, our Worker Accommodations Coordinator,  is waiting to assist you. You can contact her at accommodation@tallpinesrally.com  
Accommodations Payment – you can sign up directly on the Pines website at www.tallpinesrally.com then follow the tabs to Worker Info Centre, Accommodations, then Accommodations Payment Form to purchase an accommodations package with your Credit Card that best suits your schedule. Accommodations must be paid in full prior to November 16.  Basically if you stay at one of the approved facilities listed on the website, you pay for the first night and the rally will pay for the second night. For approval of extra nights beyond that for people coming early, contact me directly at ross@tallpinesrally.com
