[CVCC] Preliminary FD Infomation

Tue Jun 28 15:53:06 EDT 2011

Hi Puck,

Thank you for your kind words regarding FD.  I'll be glad to assist with the
write up. The help of all of the CVCC participants was greatly appreciated
both the old hands and new comers.

I really appreciate Ronnie WU4G handling the online sign-up and Kyle Chavis
WA4PGM integrating the sign-up to the web site.  Martin Unger (Jonathan's
brother in law) very generously loaned us a 7-KW generator which performed
flawlessly.

One top item is media coverage.  As you know Joe Mahoney KI4GAP a reporter &
photog for the Richmond Times Dispatch came out to shoot photos and gather
info for a story.  Unfortunately, we did not make the Sunday editor's cut
but I did get the 2 photos he took for use in the article -- one of Milt and
one of Jonathan.  I'll be e-mailing these 2 excellent photos to you

I seemed to know almost everyone who showed up so let me clarify their
writing which I noticed wasn't too clear:

Amira Sudic
Ron Farley KG4QIV
Joe Landers, KE4EUE:  South East Repeater Assn, and the Va. State EOC
Joe Mahoney, KI4GAP: Richmond Times Dispatch reporter & photographer
Joshua Cease		KD4ZDQ - Henrico Police				
Bridget Cease		No Call Yet - Henrico Police

I'll have more for you later.

73, Jerry

Subject: [CVCC] Preliminary FD Infomation

This is some prelimiminary information from the sign in log and my memory.
Please check it out and advise me of any corrections and/or additions.

I thought this was an outstanding effort by Jerry our FD chairman and all of
the CVCC members who participated.
I won't name names for fear of leaving out important contributions by our
members, but please know that all your efforts made this what I think was
one of our better Field Days' ever. 

I see Bob has the logs and it appears our results this year will be very
similiar to last year when we had 2,666 Q's and 8,978 points total.  This
year we surely had more pleasant weather.  Saturday we had a bunch of
visitors and I wish I had taken more time to greet them all but I think
Jerry and other members did a great job of doing this.

I would appreciate any comments from participants which you should send to
Jerry and I. He or I or both of us can use them to write up a nice summary
of CVCC FD 2011 for the next news letter. Also send any pictures you may
have taken to me.  I'll try to put them together in a few nice collages for
the News letter.  Also send them to Kyle for posting on the web page.

For those who don't know, I has a bit of a mishap when I left the park.
While backing up I hit that flag pole next to the shelter and down it went.
I called the county this morning and told them about it and to send the bill
for repair to me.  I think our insurance will cover the cost but if not I'll
take care of it.  It sure was a heck of a way to end a very enjoyable
weekend and Field Day!   

73,
Puck W4PM
