CAARA has a great public service team. Come out and have some fun with us.
You are using amateur radio to provide a needed public service to ensure the safety and smooth running of a public event in local communities.
We are looking for operators to staff the YuKanRun Happy Holidays Half Marathon on Sunday December 5, 2021 at 9:00 AM for a 10:00 AM start time. Start, finish at Good Harbor Beach, Gloucester, MA 01930.
Please let me know if you can staff a communications check-point for the event so I can plan staffing positions for the event.
Please let us know what type of equipment you plan to use ( mobile; HT; ¼-wave mag mount; rubber duck, etc.) so we have a better idea of where to locate you along the event course per the potential of your equipment.
The course will be open and supported by CAARA for four hours. Runner safety is everyone’s top priority. Local EMT crews and ambulances will be available for three hours to help.
Thank you in advance for your participation!
