Many changes are planned for Rubithon in 2009!
We expect the registration form to be updated by weeks end and on the Rubithon site.
Changes for 2009 include: Dinner, Raffle and M-Bar Friday night. Saturday and Sunday are exit days, no exit strategy. Adding a new Tuesday run, dropping the Friday run. Unit cost for all items and no breakfast in 09.
Basically, we are simplifying Rubithon for 2009. Culminating all activities on Friday night and ending event at raffle conclusion. We are opening Sat and Sun to all members to exit at their leisure. There will be no exit strategy and you have two days to get out. We are not providing a breakfast this year due to Friday activities.
I expect to announce the new Rubithon Chairman at Rubithon.
New Comm Leads include:
Jim Henle is taking over as Trail Lead
Robert Mutzig is taking over as Camp Lead
Cindy Twiddy is taking over at Registration
Ross Woody is taking full Kitchen Lead this year
Due to activities happening Friday night, we are dropping the Friday morning Run. If many folks find this to be difficult, we could add a Tahoe side in if needed.
The FJ Trail Team is NOT confirmed for 09. We will keep you posted but without them, there will be no FJ run.
We are changing the pricing format. All items will be unit cost to avoid giving folks stuff they do not want.
We are expecting a much smaller event this year due to the economy. For 2009, it all about the wheeling and not the event.
We have a new Fax number, currently on our web site.
We expect to have the registration forms ready by weeks end, 1/25. If we late, just check back in later.
Thanks all! Looking forward to a safe and fun 2009 Rubithon!
