Though this checklist is worded the first time rallyemaster, consulting it should keep any rallyemaster from forgetting anything important and help the rallye stay on schedule. More detailed instructions are in the Rallyemaster Handbook.

Before the Rallye

9 months prior

6 months prior

  • Consult with mentor. Discuss concepts, basic gimmick ideas, flyer, route, etc.
  • Try to assure no major (traffic-causing) events will occur along the route. Check that Shoreline Amphitheater will not have an event on rallye night if you are going anywhere near it.
  • Continue writing rallye.
  • If you want to finish at the San Jose Round Table Pizza (4400 Stevens Creek Blvd. between Lawrence & Keilly), you can reserve the large room only 3-5pm, 5-7pm, or 7-10pm. This means that reasonable rallye finishes are 4, 6, 8, and 9 PM. Plan accordingly before publishing a flyer.

4 months prior

  • Prepare flyer including your mmmYY@TheRallyeClub.org E-mail address and send it to webmaster.
  • Send mail to Steve Watt <steve@watt.com> asking him to put you on the mmmYY@TheRallyeClub.org mailing list. You may have more than one person get this mail, but probably want to agree who will answer, so questioners don't get duplicate or conflicting responses.
  • Finish writing rallye
  • Either start attending monthly General meetings to give updates or email updates to TRC's Secretary at least 4 days before meeting.

3 months prior

  • Arrange for precheckers.
  • Get first prechecks done; make corrections to rallye as needed.

2 months prior

2 weeks prior

  • Prepare checkpoint crew instructions.
  • Obtain [[TRC Equipment|
