Discover yourself in Idaho!
July 6-9, 2006

Western Idaho Fairgrounds
Boise, Idaho

Less than two weeks until rally time! The rally program is set, pins and rally gifts are in, and a lot of us will hit the road next week to journey to Boise, Idaho!

Registration
On-line registration will shut down at midnight tonight, so if you've been procrastinating, time to register! You can also register for the Wine Tour, Friday Night BBQ Dinner and Star ERC. But don't fret; you will also be able to register for these events on the rally site in Registration. Be mindful of your time table, the Wine Tour departs late Thursday morning, the BBQ Dinner is Friday evening and we have two Star ERC Classes. Plan accordingly!

Accommodations
A good number of us will be camping, but some of you prefer life in a hotel room. We have a great hotel close by with a block of rooms just for the rally. The Double Tree has reduced their rate and the new rate is on the website. They have a fabulous pool and sit adjacent to the river. On those hot July rally days, the pool will look very inviting!

Rally Events
Lots to do: Wine Tour, River Rafting, Star ERC Course, Tamarack ride, and the Chills and Thrills. Sign up to enjoy the variety of events!

Set Up Schedule
Reminder: Western Idaho Fairgrounds will allow us to start set up on Tuesday, July 4th. You can arrive at the site on the 4th ONLY if you are a "designated rally volunteer" or vendor. Since we will have the site on this day, we will allow vendors to arrive early and set up. If you arrive on the afternoon of Wednesday the 5th you will be nabbed to help out somewhere on the rally grounds. We will have early rally registration for vendors and volunteers Wednesday afternoon from 3 PM- 5 PM at the Registration tent. If you just want to come early, we will allow rally goers to arrive on Wednesday afternoon/evening to set up camp.

Volunteer
Since my last eNewsletter you've been volunteering like mad! We need to fill up those slots so keep contacting me. Check out the volunteer schedules at: www.bmwra.org/rally/volunteer.html . And we even have surprises in store: what's big, full of hot air and floats like the wind?

See ya there,
