Oregon Trail Rally Needs Volunteers
The Oregon Trail Rally is May 15-17th, near Portland, Oregon.
Volunteers are needed to make the rally happen. We need people to road 
marshal, staff controls, operate HAM
radios, and direct traffic. No special skills are needed and all 
volunteers receive a T-Shirt, goody bag, and entry
to the awards banquet with dinner. In addition, we will be holding a 
raffle for some bigger, nicer items at the
banquet. Volunteers can work the whole weekend, or just one day. It is fun 
and rewarding- Volunteers usually
have the best viewing spot in the rally, or get to interact directly with 
the drivers and co-drivers, including Travis
Pastrana, Ken Block, Dave Mirra, and Tanner Foust. The rally is based at 
Portland International Raceway on
Friday night, May 15th, and then moves into the forest near Hood River, 
Oregon for Saturday and Sunday. For
more information, please visit 
http://www.oregontrailrally.com/volunteers.html or email Rebecca Ruston at
volunteers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
