Operation Bear Paw Road Rally - Thursday, July 7th

The Arctic Alaska Region of the Sports Car Club of America will be sanctioning the 2011 Road Rally Championship, sponsored by RPM Alaska. A part of the Bear Paw Festival since 1986, this years' Road Rally picks up the name the Chugiak-Eagle River Chamber of Commerce has for the 26th Annual Bear Paw Festival — Operation Bear Paw!

The Operation Bear Paw Road Rally on Thursday, July 7th, will be one of the first events of the Festival. Rallyists will gather at the Carl's Jr Restaurant in Eagle River at 6:00PM. There is a Mileage Check that will be sent to teams upon registration for those who wish to do an Odometer Check for the event. Do plan to arrive as close to 6PM as possible, as there are final registration matters to take care of, waiver forms to sign, and a quick vehicle tech inspection. Entry fees are $15 for the Driver and $15 for the Navigator. For those who do not hold an SCCA Membership, there is a $5 SCCA Weekend Membership available.

To refresh seasoned rallyists and to give those new to the sport a review of the Road Rally Generals, there will be there will be a very brief Road Rally School at 6:00P to cover the basics of rallying. 

Rallymaster Cheryl Lynn will take Drivers and Navigators on some familiar routes around the Chugiak-Eagle River area on the Operation Bear Paw Road Rally. Beginner route instructions are available for those new to the sport and we will end at a local restaurant for rally camaraderie and the scoring of the event!

Don't have a dedicated rally partner? No worries—we are encouraging folks to arrive and form teams at the starting location! Register up so folks know you're looking for a rally partner.

A reminder that the Arctic Alaska Region will also be a part of the Classic Car Show, in beautiful downtown Eagle River, on Friday, July 8th!
