Since COVID has not gone away, in-car instruction will only be available to students and instructors who are both fully vaccinated and willing to upload proof of vaccination status. Anyone who is not fully vaccinated, or does not want to divulge their status, will not be eligible for in-car and will be required to use the lead-follow format instead. These steps are optional for people in the pre-approved Solo group. After registering for the event, please go to http://msreg.com/TrilliumInCarInstruction and indicate your preference regarding in-car instruction. If you provided your vaccination certificate last year then there is no need to do it again.
