If you would like to sign up for a road crossing, please contact Nobody (XXØXXX). Last update from : 0/00/00 2009 Road Crossing Volunteers:
* = New BARC Operator 1 = Highest Priority 2 = Lower Priority 3 = Fillers Some of these crossings are of the highest priority, others are simply fillers for operators who want to work, but are unassigned anywhere else. The locations with a #1 are high priority. The locations with a #2 are lower priority, but locations we would still like to fill. Lastly, locations with a #3 are very seldom worked by BARC, and are only covered as requested by Beargrease or when we have extra operators. Important notes for this year:All BARC road crossing volunteers: Please remember that our primary responsibility during the race is to use our equipment and experience to track teams at crossings and to report crossings along with health and welfare traffic. It is not our responsibility at road crossings to stop traffic, shovel snow, or to assist teams across the road. If you choose to perform these activities, it is of your own accord, and at your own risk. Please keep this in mind while working at crossings so that we can remain effective at what we do best, passing health and welfare traffic, and to maintain our own personal safety while working this great event! Please remember that checkpoints are again reporting official times. This will create increased traffic on the net due to the amount of time it takes to transmit all these times including seconds. Net control will also be repeating these times back to ensure accuracy. I ask that all road-crossing operators remember that they are second in line to checkpoints. Unless there is an emergency at your crossing, please heed right of way of the frequency to the checkpoints. This may mean delays in reporting crossings to net control, but this is a trade-off that we need to live with.
