[HCRA] Scantic Spring Splash - Cheer One of our Own Hams

[Larry Krainson]

Tomorrow is the Scantic Spring Splash in Enfield, CT. A bunch of us are
providing emergency comms along the way and one of our own is competing!

Come cheer on Jake - KB1NSN as he competes in the racing course which starts
at 12 noon and goes 5 miles down the river to the finish at the Red Barn.

You can learn more about the race at: www.scanticspringsplash.org

If you come and cheer Jacob on, here's how you can identify him:

He'll be in a short (less than 9 foot) long red kayak and wearing a black
and red wet sui with a black spray skirtt. His helmet is a black and yellow
"Livestrong" bike helmet. But his paddle should be easiest to see with black
handles and yellow blades. Right near the blades will be a reflective red
and white strip.

Hopefully he'll be recognizable and you can cheer him on as he approaches
and goes by. He won't have a radio as he'll be too busy paddling!

This is Jakes first competition and run down the Scantic River. So please
give him a hearty yell as he goes by!

73 from his proud dad who'll be helping with emergency comms along the
route.
