Subject: [K1USN] CEMARC meeting announcement and last call for volunteers
for Saturday 9/18

Please forward this message to all hams in Eastern Massachusetts:

This Saturday (9/18) the Council of Eastern Massachusetts Amateur Radio
Clubs (CEMARC) will be meeting aboard the USS Salem from 9am till 1pm.

All area hams are encouraged to attend this meeting to find out what¹s
happening in the area.

We have a couple of special tours planned of the USS Salem, including areas
that are not normally open to the public!  Bob Callahan, W1QWT, has
volunteered to give tours of all of the radio rooms, discussing what each
was used for.  Many of the radio rooms still have their original equipment,
some of it in working order! We also hope to have tours of the rest of the
ship, including the engine room and lots more interesting sights.

The MaSATERN Group will have a Salvation Army Canteen on the pier providing
coffee, tea, or hot chocolate to early arrivals.

Lunch will be provided to all attendees, courtesy of the HamTestOnline
website. 

If there are any takers, the ham shack will be open from 1pm till 3pm for
operating or hanging out.

All are encouraged to stay and help with the scouting activities from 3pm
till 6pm.  No prior experience is necessary.

I need a firm commitment TODAY from 1 more experienced volunteer to make the
scouting activity happen!

Supper will be provided for all hams that help with the scouts in the
afternoon, courtesy of the USS Salem Overnight Adventure program.

Instructions on how to get to the USS Salem can be found at
www.uss-salem.org <http://www.uss-salem.org/> .  Admission and parking are
free for volunteers.  (Remember to get your parking ticket validated on the
ship.) 

I hope to see you there!
