What rally workers do we need?

Sweep: Ideal for truck owners. Go out on the stages and tow in disabled cars.

Course Marshal: Sit in the woods guarding an intersection on the rally course. Have the best seat in the house. Watch the rally cars go by at speed inches from where you are standing. No Experience needed.

Medical and Emergency Services: Are you an EMT, nurse, doctor, or firefighter? Handle everything from crew members with scraped knuckles to driver extraction and car fires.

Timing: Be the first to know who is the winner!

Control Workers: Close off the stages to all except the competing drivers.

Registration: Here's your chance to meet drivers, their crew members, and the rest of the rally crowd. Many Registration people are crew members or work in other specialties too.

Tech Inspection: Are the cars safe and legal according to the rules? Do the drivers have the proper safety gear? Mechanical experience is helpful, but not essential.

Ham Radio Operators: These people are responsible for providing communication between the rally stages and control.

Rally Chair: These are the folks who organize the event and make sure it runs smoothly. They do everything from budget planning to phoning rally results to the press.
