[GCARC] need help military mast raising @ AB2E Oct1 Sat/still need 3 crew

[Agustin Neron Properties LLC]

Hello all,
We still need 3 ground crew to keep the guy wires tight as we raise each section of the tower. Please help if you can, this will only take about an hour Sat morning Oct 1, at 10AM. Please RVSP to me at ab2e at comcast.net so I know who is coming.

I'm treating everyone to breakfast or lunch at Elmer Diner afterwards!

Thanks and 73, Darrell AB2E

33 Buck Rd, Monroeville (1/4 mile south from Schober's Farm heading towards Rt 40 on the right)
