It's officially June. So I am taking volunteers for Field Day bonus points. There are bonuses already taken as you can see. We need information table volunteers, from 2pm-8pm. You can volunteer for slices of that time.

We need volunteers for Message Origination and Message Handling. We used to get these every year, but lately could not get any volunteers that know how to do message traffic and handling. And to be honest, for someone like myself, I have no idea how to do any of it. It's not easy and needs an experienced handler.

Youth Participation. Anyone under 18 can make 1 QSO for 20 point, max of 100 point. So we would need 5 people under 18 to reach 100 point. My daughter and Frank's (N3PUU) son, count for 2 youths and 40 point. We need 3 more youths.

We also need a rep for an agency: One (1) 100-point bonus may be claimed if your Field Day site is visited by a representative of an agency served by ARES in your local community (American Red Cross, Salvation Army, local Emergency Management, law enforcement, etc.)
