Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Where can I get more information?
A. Please feel free to contact any committee member, visit the City of Effingham website (www.visitEffinghamIL.com), or call (800) 772-0750. Make certain you keep checking back here for more content as it becomes available. We will continue to update this section (FAQ) as well as the entire website until conclusion of the Rally.
Q. Where can I register?
A. If you attended last year’s event, you should receive a pre-registration flyer in the mail around the middle of February. There is a copy of that form available as a link on our home page. If you would like a form mailed to you, please contact the Registration Coordinator. However, by far the easiest and quickest manner is right here, online! Use the convenient online registration form to immediately register and to order your rally merchandise. It's quick, easy, safe, and secure!
Q. How much is registration?
A. Pre-registration is $40.00 with tax and includes your Rally Packet with the 2008 Crossroads Rendezvous T-Shirt, a Rally Pin, and access to all on-site events, activities, and entertainment. You are also automatically entered into prize drawings held hourly throughout the length of the rally.
Q. Will it be safe to register online with my credit card?
A. Yes, H.O.G. uses VeriSign to validate the security of the online registration process. You can feel safe in using your Visa or MasterCard to register for the Rally.
Q. Are there day passes available?
A. Sorry, there are no day passes. You are welcome to come for the day. However, the $40.00 registration fee still applies.
Q. Is the Rally open to the public?
A. The Rally is a private event held for currently registered H.O.G. members only. Associate H.O.G. members should register as a member. The Rally is a closed event and is not open to the public.
Q. Can I bring a non-H.O.G. member as a guest?
A. A registered H.O.G. member may bring ONE non-H.O.G. member guest but must pay the $30.00 registration fee for the guest. Guests do not receive a Rally packet, T-Shirt, or Pin.
Q. Will there be on-site registration available?
A. Yes, on-site registration will be available at the Rally Site Registration Booth. But why wait? Pre-register now and you'll get the Rally T-Shirt and Rally Pin for the same price!
Q. Does everyone need to wear a wristband?
A. Yes, a wristband is required to enter the Rally site. All members and guests must have a wristband. NOTE: the wristband must be put onto the attendee’s wrist in Registration. We are not allowed to give anyone a wristband for someone else who is not in physical attendance at Registration.

A. Many hotels are within walking distance and still more are throughout the City of Effingham.
