Hello all,
The Big White Winter Rally is looking for Radio Operators.
A briefing session will be planned a few days prior to the event weekend for local operators to provide a better understanding of expectations, procedures, routes, etc.
The following initial information has been provided by Polina Sergeyenko VA7POL:
The Big White Winter Rally is back in the Okanagan Valley!
The Organizing Group is working hard on putting together a first class national event, but they can't do it without your help!
While a lot of work and planning goes into organizing a stage rally, some details cannot be decided till the last moment. That being said, here is what the tentative plan looks like at the moment:
Thursday Dec 5: Service park setup
Friday Dec 6: Tech, Recce, Stage setup
Saturday Dec 7: Stages Stages Stages
Sunday Dec 8: Clean up
As always, the work would be setting up stages, manning time controls, road blocking, stage security and many other jobs with great viewing locations.
HAM operators are needed for various duties during stages, mainly road blocking and time controls. So the greatest need for HAM operators is on Saturday. And, of course, if you have time and want to join the fun early on it will be greatly appreciated!
BWWR organizers will provide lodging and Saturday lunch. The plan is to have a banquet after the event Saturday night.
HAM operators are integral for the safety of a rally event. The event will not be possible without the support of the local HAM community. Please consider coming out to Big White this December and helping out.
Volunteer registration form is now live:
Hope to see you at Big White this December,
Polina VA7POL Sergeyenko on behalf of BWWR organizers.
