[PPRAANet] MARC July 4 VE Session POSTPONED until July 11

[Wes Wilson KØHBZ]

All (sent to numerous groups/organizations) –

 

NOTE:  The previously-scheduled July 4th Mountain Amateur Radio Club VE
Session had to be POSTPONED due to movement of the city’s annual July 4th
city celebration from a local park to the areas surrounding the Woodland
Park Library, which will cause considerable distraction and greatly restrict
access & parking.

 

The VE Session has been rescheduled for:

10 am; Saturday, July 11th 

Location:  Woodland Park Library COMPUTER LAB

218 E. Midland Ave.

Woodland Park, CO 80863

 

MARC, which normally conducts VE Sessions on the FIRST SATURDAY of the
ODD-NUMBERED MONTHS (January, March, May, July, Sept. and Nov.) usually
offers sessions when the first Saturday falls on a Holiday (New Year’s Day,
4th of July, etc.) because most VE sessions are on Saturdays and some people
have to work.  By offering occasional sessions on a holiday, those people
are sometimes able to attend when they otherwise would not.  

 

The Mountain Amateur Radio Club VE Team will be conducting a VE session at
10 am on Saturday, July 11th, in the Community Meeting Room COMPUTER
LABORATORY of the Woodland Park Library, 218 East Midland Avenue.  The MARC
VE Team is affiliated with the ARRL/VEC and examinations for all classes of
license will be offered.  

 

Full information, including driving directions to the Woodland Park Library,
is available under “VE Sessions” on the MARC website at
http://www.nx0g.org/ve.html or contact Wes Wilson (KØHBZ) at k0hbz at arrl.net
or call (719) 687-8758.

 

If attending, please BE SURE to bring the following items to the session:

1.  A valid PHOTO ID, driver's license preferred (if you do not have a valid
photo ID, please call for alternative identification requirements).

2.  Your SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER (now required – this includes children).

3.  Your ORIGINAL amateur radio license (if any) AND a PHOTOCOPY for the VE
Team to keep.

4.  The ORIGINAL of any relevant CSCEs you may have AND a PHOTOCOPY for the
VE Team to keep.

5.  Cash, Check or Money Order for $15 (standard ARRL VE Fee).  Checks and
money orders should be made out to MARC and cover all different exams you
wish to take at the VE session.

 

MARC VE Team policy, as with many VE Teams, is to NOT allow same day retests
on failed exams. 

 

For already licensed hams, MARC members should be monitoring the MARC
repeater system 146.820- or 448.650- (both 107.2 Hz) if you need help with
talk-in.
