[RVRC] Charity Race Event help requested!

[Gerry Jurrens N2GJ]

Hi, All!
 
I received a request from Emily at the Aubrey Foundation for communications 
support for their "2nd Annual Purple for Pappas 5K" race that will be held *on 
Sunday October 9th, 2016 at Linwood Middle School in North Brunswick, NJ. 
They would be delighted if they could get 6+ ham radio operators to help 
out with communications for their event. Our folks should be prepared to 
arrive around 7:30 AM. The race ends around 11:30 AM. *
 
I met Aubrey's father at GriefShare -- she was a much-beloved teacher in 
the area who died (along with her unborn child) in a tragic car wreck in 
South Brunswick on October 8, 2014. 

For more information on the foundation, please see:

Unfortunately, I will not be in NJ for this event, as I will be traveling 
out west for the next 4 weeks. So, I asked for someone to step up and 
volunteer to lead a small team of hams in support of this worthwhile 
charity.

Pat Howard, K2PAT, has stepped up to volunteer to coordinate this effort. 
His email is:

 Thank you for your consideration. 73,
