Calling all ARES/RACES members and interested parties. The County Amateur Radio Emergency Services is off and running. I would like to invite everyone to the training sessions. Our new format is to conduct training and help all whom have the desire to help their community. The format is the ARRL Emergency Services Program. Membership is open to all. You do not need to belong to any club to participate in the training or be a member of the program. All we ask is that you come with the commitment to further your Ham Radio skills and the compassion to want to help those in need.
I believe that if we all work together by training as one we will have the best group of trained operators in the District and in the Oregon Section. I know that everyone who has come before me has been challenged just to do that. But in order for this to happen I NEED YOUR HELP! I can't do this alone and our communities need your help. So please be a part of something I feel well be GREAT! And oh by the way LET'S HAVE SOME FUN!
