POSTPONED – SEE EMAIL FROM ACT WICEN

The National Capital Rally for 2021 is scheduled for Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th of March, with Saturday stages being held in the Tidbinbilla area in the morning and moving to Kowen in the afternoon and Sunday being in the Pierces East, Tidbinbilla, Uriarra and Stromlo areas.
Saturday Morning sees the running of 2 stages at Tidbinbilla with SS1 being the “Cottage 5 Ways” stage and SS2 being the “Tidbinbilla” stage, and in the afternoon moving to 6 stages (3 stages each run twice) of SS3 & SS6 being a short “Wamboin” stage that includes the ‘jump’ at Kowen, SS4 & SS7 being a revised “Charcoal” stage, and SS5 & SS8 being a new stage at the far western end of the ACT called “Bald Hill” stage.


Sunday sees the running of 6 stages (5 stages with only 1 run twice). SS9 & SS12 is “Caves Block” being held in the Pierces East area, SS10 is “Cottage 5 Ways”, and SS11 is “Tidbinbilla” and SS13 being “Hyles Block” and then onto a power stage “Bluetts Last” between Denman Prospect and the Molonglo River, this will definitely be the last rally to make use of that section of ACT land and the organisers thank the Developers – Capital Airport Group.
At this stage, meet times and locations are being worked through and the following is subject to change ….
Can I ask that you respond to this request for volunteers using the google form at this link: https://docs.google.com/…/1eaPsmalxMz0QTtKAAkfM…/edit…


Thanks to those who have already completed the Google Form already, it is appreciated.
Please use this form for your responses rather than emailing us (as we need answers to the questions asked on the form), but of course, if you do have questions or cannot access the link, please email us on the WICEN@crarc.org.au address.


Please let us know if you are unable to assist also, so we can make a notation and not harass you further.
Now, I am very pressed for time and will need some help with some of the Admin and other tasks such as doing the roster, planning the repeater installs / retrievals, etc, so if you can help out in those area’s prior to the rally then please let me know directly, please.


Cheers,
