Emergency Communication / Public Service request

[Orion Thrower]

We have had a group contact us, asking if we would be willing to assist them with their communications setup.

This event would be some hiking, not far.  This would be located near Oak Flat's campground.

I am doing a preliminary assessment to see if the club has members that are interested.

I would like to hear back as to how many would be willing to help out.  If we don't have enough members, then I might turn this over to another group.

Again, nothing has been written in stone.  I am just asking how many people would be willing to help out so I can judge whether or not what this group is looking for is feasible. 

Email me back if this is something you would be interested in helping out with or not.

I am interested in any group that gets me out and about using radios. That is why I went to see the queen creek ham group meeting in queen creek.  They share our interest in working out in the field using ham radio technology. So any group with this idea has my attention so how about more details on place and time.

Good to hear Dennis.

I have spoken with the coordinator of the event.  Here is the overall expectation.  They are looking to have a minimum of 10 volunteers for this event.  We would be shadowing their staff and medical staff and communicating their needs to the main location which is setup at Oakflats campground.  This is our stomping grounds folks.  We operate a ton from this location.  We just need to scout out their locations to see roughly where they are doing their competition.  I have some info to share with you.

As of right now, I don't know this particular spot.  However, this would be something that with a little planning, some elbow grease from all of you, we could actually do.  I am thinking we need roughly 12 to 15 people.

If the club is not interested, then I will put them in touch with the MCECG.
