          Dear Ray,      The Harvard Pilgrim Finish at the          Fifty is a combined 5K and 10K foot race with unique        appeal: the finish line for both courses is Gillette Stadium’s        50-yard line. The race is the main event of a whole festival of        fun activities—including a fireworks show afterward—that draws a        diverse crowd. This year’s event is adding water stations that        require communications support, as well as an adjusted 10K route        based on runner feedback.      The Finish at the Fifty        is on Friday, July 3. Hams will work with medical volunteers to        ensure runners’ safety and wellbeing. Volunteers will report to        Gillette Stadium at 5:00 PM, and assignments will run until        about 8:00 PM. Of course, you’ll be welcome to stick around for        the fireworks show—those start at 9:00 PM.      There are positions        appropriate for hams of all experience levels at this event, and        it’d be great to have your help. To volunteer, just write back        with the following information:              Your call sign, full name, and          name you prefer on the air        Your cell phone number (if you          have one), plus any other numbers where you prefer to be          reached leading up to the event        The transmit band(s) of your          radio(s)        Your shirt size        Do you have any needs or requests          we should consider when making your assignment?            If you have questions        about the race, or any other BARC public service event, please        get in touch with me by e-mail at ab1rl at arrl.net, or        phone (859) 466 5915.      Thank you, and 73,      ​        --
