BARC’s first public service event in May is our second fundraising walk for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. The MS Journey of Hope walk takes place on Saturday, May 7, in Natick, MA. Event organizers are asking amateur radio operators to provide communications across the course to ensure participants’ safety.

Like past years, the MS Journey of Hope starts at Natick High School, at 15 West Street in Natick, and loops through town. Volunteers will check in at 8:00 AM, and stay until the early afternoon.

Rick Savage, KB1LYJ, is organizing the hams for this event. To volunteer, please write him with the following information:

Your call sign, full name, and name you prefer on the airContact information: your e-mail address, postal address, and phone numbers where you can be reached (cell, home, office)Your shirt sizeThe transmit band(s) of your radio(s), and other equipment you could bringDo you have any needs or requests we should consider when making your assignment? 

In addition to contacting Rick all volunteers must register online. This is a requirement of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.  Rick can also answer any questions you have about the event.


Thanks for volunteering, and 73,
