Nice.  But this time of year I am super busy and that date is not good.  I have been involved with Emergency Management since 1980 and have retired from that service.  ARES and RACES are a great service as well.  I was in charge of Ocean County RACES for a number of years as well, as Communications Coordinator the Ocean County Office of Emergency Management.  If anyone was thinking of getting involves this is a great way to get into it.

Ham radio is a great way to help out.  If anyone has a license and was looking to put their time to good use SKYWARN is an excellent way to volunteer.

Hi N2HYG,

Perhaps next time I am down your way we can get together and fish.  We have a lot in common as I am the current County Radio Officer in Camden County for ARES/RACES.  IM me or email me n2phi@comcast.net if you would like to fish sometime.  73 de Rick N2PHI

No big deal, check out the NWS Website for SKYWARN as they post classes throughout the year,  not sure where you are from but their maybe a class local to you.  If your from up my way another one will be offered in the near future in Gloucester County NJ.  Thanks.
