Another reminder of this year's Amish 100 bike event sponsored by PACE.  It
is scheduled for Saturday September 21st, and this year is based at the
College of Southern Maryland (Leonardtown Campus) with various length routes
and rest stops throughout the county.  There are normally 4 rest stops
(Sotterly, Piney Point, Chopticon HS, and (my favorite) Coltons Point.

Normally we as hams assist the sponsors with 'emergency' communications
assistance, with people located at the rest stops, at the base station, and
in SAG mobiles along the various routes.

Soni Gerlach and Greg Davis from PACE are eager for us to assist again, and
would like a tentative list of interested people by September 4th.  With
this list, we would also like your shirt size since one of the 'rewards' we
get for assisting are free T-shirts of the event (nice shirts).  

Please keep this in mind as one of the events we as a 'community' of hams
get together and help out for a good cause.

Any questions, feel free to contact me.  PACE's page is www.bikepace.com.
I'll post directions to the College down the road.

Thanks,
Barry
