And, y\u2019all know our rallies are pretty chill and we\u2019ll give you all the support you need. It&#8217;s your call if the rally is chill, simple and quiet or a highly organized affair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019re doing a ton of work to get more rallies on the calendar but we can\u2019t do it without hosts. This is a pretty easy gig, but it\u2019s essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We currently have a rally site booked in Chama, NM for 16-19 June, but we don&#8217;t have a host to finish the organization and push it across the finish line. We&#8217;re days away from having to cancel this rally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s the ask:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"mailto:004president@wbcci.net?subject=URGENT! We'll Host Chama!\"><strong>Volunteer as host<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Plan some activities<\/strong> \u2013 maybe it&#8217;s just a chill session with a couple happy hours and campfires and all you need to do is buy some firewood. Maybe you go all out and book a musician, a food truck, fire up the grill in the morning and serve up deluxe pancakes and waffles. Put out a call to members for activities they may want to organize and run. Whatever! It&#8217;s your call. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Estimate the costs<\/strong> and then provide all the details to the Jotform Manager who gets the registration and sign-up messages ready<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Answer member questions<\/strong> about the rally plans and move people from waitlist to registration list if required and with the assistance of the Jotform Manager<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Keep track of any expenses<\/strong> and if there are significant expenses the club will pay rather you fronting the dosh<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Show up<\/strong> a couple hours before everyone else and execute your rally schedule<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reap the love<\/strong> and gratitude from the attendees for volunteering as host<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Submit a summary<\/strong> with a brief list of expenses and receipts to the treasurer and you&#8217;ll be reimbursed for any outlays<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As much or little work as you want it to be. It&#8217;s not hard. It&#8217;s a ton of fun. You aren&#8217;t alone in the wilderness. An entire team is there to help and support you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, what do you say? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yeah, I knew you&#8217;d agree. Here&#8217;s the link, <a href=\"mailto:004president@wbcci.net?subject=URGENT! We'll Host Chama!\">tell us you&#8217;re up for it<\/a> and we don&#8217;t have to cancel this great rally before it even gets started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For years people have been providing feedback that it&#8217;s hard to get into rallies. It&#8217;s a huge hassle to get into campgrounds in general. And, why aren&#8217;t there more rallies?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the past a rally only happened if someone got up the moxie to find a great location, identify a campsite, make booking arrangements, sometimes even paying out-of-pocket to secure the site, and just generally doing a lot of logistical work to get a rally set up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In response to the demand for more rallies, your leadership team has done a ton of work this year. A decision was made to act fast and book sites of general awesome-ness when they were available with the goal of getting to 12 rallies per year &#8211; a rally every month. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The result is that we&#8217;re booking some rally sites first and assigning a host second. Sometimes, the folks originally planning to host the rally can&#8217;t make it \u2013 life happens. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bottom line \u2013 No Host, No Rally.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TL;DR We still don&#8217;t have a host for this rally.
