[W1SMH] ARCNBC Walk For Awareness:

[Bruce Alexander]

Get Out Your Walking Shoes:

Spring is officially here.  I can make this proclamation because we have
once again been asked to assist the Association for Retarded Citicens of
Northern Bristol County on their annual Walk For Awareness.  We have not
participated at this event in several years, as the walk had down sized, &
our services were being duplicated by the Attleboro Police Department.  This
year however, the walk will be taking a new route, & APD will not be able to
provide as much coverage as in recent years.

The walk will step off at 10am from 5 bank street, Attleboro, passing
through the center, down county street, to Kapron Park, first circumventing
the park.  The length of the walk is about 3 miles, & there will probably be
50/100 walkers.

Our assistance has been requested to keep walkers on course, on the
sidewalk, & not spread out to much.  We will NOT be responsible for street
crossing, APD will be hancling that.

Six to eight hams will be needed, report time will be 9:30am.  We will be
using the 147.195mhz repeater, as we have done in the past.  After the walk
we are invited to have refreshment with walk participants at the park.
Further details we be available as soon as they are finalized.  If you are
interested in helping, please contact KA1IG, 508-643-0008,
mailto:bba@naisp.net/, or on 447.975mhz.  I will be looking forward to
hearing from you all.

73, & Thanks In Advance:
Bruce, KA1IG
