[FARC] Radio Ops needed for Flu Clinic

[Jeff Fishman]

Frederick County ARES will be providing tactical communications for the 
Frederick County Health Dept. Influenza Vaccination Clinics & Preparedness 
Exercise on Monday, Nov. 3rd, from 1100 to 1800 at three county high 
schools. This exercise will simulate a Mass Immunization emergency scenario 
and will utilize the Area Command form of the Incident Command System (ICS) 
with an Incident Commander at each location. We will be providing 2M voice 
communications between the clinics and the Health Dept. HQ in Frederick via 
one of the local repeaters.

We are attempting to be able to provide radios, antennas and power supplies 
at each location, but personal gear may also be used. The clinics will be at 
Governor Thomas Johnson, Urbana, and Brunswick High Schools and a sandwich 
lunch will be provided around noon. In addition, all operators can get a 
FREE flu shot if they wish. Ah, the perks of amateur radio volunteering!

This will be a great opportunity see the ICS in action and all interested 
hams are invited to participate (ARES/RACES membership is NOT required). 
Please contact me if you are available on the 3rd for all or part of the 
day, or if you have any questions. Thanks!
