Itinerary:

PLEASE ADD YOURSELF TO THE WAITING LIST.
I will add drivers (and if requested, their spouse/partner/child/parent) as you sign-up. I will add passengers as I feel comfortable there are enough committed drivers. I will fill any remaining spots one week before the event to ensure there are enough vehicles in case any drivers decide to drop-out before the event. Waiting list preference for passengers will go to new members (5 or fewer events) first.

DRIVERS, WHEN YOU SIGN UP, PLEASE WRITE IN THE NOTES SECTION, THE AMOUNT OF PASSENGERS YOU CAN TAKE IN YOUR CAR! If this is not completed, you may be moved to the waitlist until this question is answered
