Sure, registration is open. Members do get a considerable rally fee discount. 

BTW -membership now has a reasonable policy that allows those expired more than a year to get into the club with their old member #.

Truth be known, I became a member so my info would be in the directory so if anyone needed help or a place to camp out my info would be handy.  Discounts are great, but not my motivation.  If I could just keep that info for other riders I really wouldnt re new, is that possible ssmith?  I just wanna be handy for that rider in need.
And FWIW, I will be attending the rally, gonna do the tent thingy :)

Do it!  A COG membership is second only to a KiPass FOB!   :D

We can ride there together Chet, me you and hopefully Gumbi, sounds like fun!  :)
 
I'll be staying at the hotel though, my old body can't take tenting it anymore and I can't bring both my RV and my Connie, so hotel it is for me at least...

Does this mean non members can't offer assistance?

Non-members can offer assistance.  There is no need to ask permission or be listed in a directory to offer assistance. To be listed in COG's member directory, you need to be a member.

Any of you PNW riders know of great campground that I might not find through an internet search.  It seems like the best places to camp aren't listed anywhere on the net (or are very hard to find).  Great views and clean showers are definitely at the top of my list. 

I know Chet said he wanted to camp, maybe we could share a site or get spots next to each other.
