JDRF is asking for our help with the Walk on May 18, 2013. The event will back at Riverside Park in Neenah and will follow the same route as in the past. The walk is 5K long so it will go pretty quick and should be wrapped up before noon. Two meter simplex will be used. We will meet at 8 am in front of the Neenah swimming pool on Park Avenue. (Two blocks south of Wisconsin Avenue.) This location has easy access and lots of parking. We can use 10 or 12 operators.
Please consider helping out for this worthy cause.

FCARC,

Thanks to all who helped with communications and logistics for the American Cancer 5K walk/run - Sole Burner 2013.

We had rain, snow, sleet and High Winds to contend with, but all operators stayed on location until Net Control cleared their station. MORE....

Great event today!! Thank you all for the help, it really made a difference.

Today is it!!!

Roll call at 08:30 AM on the 145.330 Repeater.

W9ZL is the Net Control call for this FCARC event.

I hope all is safe and dry!!

FCARC, 2013 Sole Burner Communications Coordinator

Hello all,

I sent the operators of the 2013 Sole Burner a list of operators and their position on a map.

If you are working the Sole Burner and didn’t get this information in a separate email please contact me.

I will need your correct email address and phone number.

Thank you,

Brian KB9LRD

Hello all FCARC members,

Will any one be able to use their home location and station to view and intrepid weather data from NWS and pass that information during the Sole Burner Net to Net Control?

Please contact me so I can get your call on the list of operators.

This person will need to check into the net during roll call and stay with the net until net control has released that weather station.

The Sole Burner event will be a directed FCARC net and will use the call W9ZL.

Great FCARC team work for the Sole Burner!

The FCARC membership has really joined in for the Sole Burner!

So far 17 have signed-up and all have been put to good use.

I can always use more, 15 was a number that would make the communication event work.

If we have additional members that still want to sign-up, we sure can use your help!

Great work FCARC!!

I have 13 operators signed-up for the Sole Burner so far, just a few short of the 15 operators desired.

Net control, SAG, Bike Mobiles, liaison and portable stations are on the map!

The T-Shirt request form has been submitted!

Just a few more days and I'll send out the map with the operator positions overlaid on it.

Thank you all who volunteered so far, I'm looking forward to another successful FCARC communications event!
