[W2CRA] Last Call WE HOPE for volunteers! Sunday April 25 March Of Dimes at Spruce Run

[Walter O'Brien]

OK we're STILL VERY LIGHT on operators for the March Of Dimes walk THIS
coming Sunday, April 25th at Spruce Run Park! We really can use just another
2-3 to make the difference!

Here is the update on the plans:

The March Of Dimes and Kiwanis people start gathering for setup at 7 AM
under the overpass swimming area entrance INSIDE Spruce Run Park. They would
like us to get there between 730 and 800 to get ourselves organized, start
hitting our checkpoints by 830 and at 9 AM the first walkers start off on
the route. 

The last walker should return by around 11, and we should all be out of
there by noon at the latest. The March Of Dimes has requested out help with
their cleanup, but our main job is radio, anything extra is entirely up to
each individual. There will be food and refreshements, but my guess is the
more we partake, the higher the guilt factor on clean up will be!

We will need one op at each of the six (6) main checkpoints, and one,
probably me, to follow in a vehicle to "bring up the rear". That makes
seven, so far we only have FOUR - if we come up short we'll just have to
lose a checkpoint or two, but I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Send me email to "w2wjo@earthlink.net" or call my home at (908) 638-3401 if
you can help or if you have questions. I have a rough route map in pdf
format if you would like, but I will have to send it at your request, not
through the reflector.

Thanks, 73! Walter W2WJO
