For extra money, we can get higher placement in search results, and can add logos, several photos, video, etc. Dean posts events as user TheRallyeClub.

Online Gimmick Rallyes

We announced our online gimmick rallyes to:

  • Puzzle hunt calendar (puzzlehuntcalendar.com)
To update this calendar, contact [Dan Egnor]
  • Bluemattergames.com (Blue Matter Games in Auburn).
Email to [editor]
  • Southern California rallye Facebook group
Dave Graubart may know whom to contact, but has not provided this info.

Who?

The "Publicity Chair" should approve all our advertising. Check with him/her before doing any on your own. However, everyone should keep this list current with instructions, so that someone can fill in or take over for the Publicity Chair.
