Please check your junk/spam mail if you do not receive it within a very short time of sending in your registration. This is the only confirmation you will receive. Mail-in registrations will receive a postcard via US Postal Service, sent out mid-June. |

Please bring your confirmation e-mail or card. It makes your sign-in experience easier. But if you forget, we can get you signed in without it, however you will be in line much longer. |

There will be someone to renew your membership on-site during the rally OR you may call 1-800-CLUBHOG to join or renew. |
