Unit Registration
Please note that for Longwoods we are asking for unit registration. This is to simplify the process. We have
asked that you give us a list of all members of your unit covered by the unit insurance so that when participants arrive,
we can confirm they are covered. We need to know fairly accurate numbers of participants for billeting reasons. So
please try to have a number of those coming to within 2 to 3 people. If you would like to email your unit list as an attachment,
or you have any questions, please click here to contact us. In addition, if your member's list changes before the event, please let us know.
