Kevin (VE6KJM) is looking for volutneers to help with the Santa Shuffle on Saturday December 2.  The event starts at 10:00 and should wrap up around 1 PM.  This run/walk is located in Hawrelak Park in Edmonton.

There will be around 800 participants in this event which will be doing two loops through the Park.  There is a requirement to have 6-8 radio operators to assist with this event.  Radio operators will be communicating with the start/finish line to report injuries, last runner,etc.

If you can assist with this even please contact Kevin at ve6kjm@gmail.com.

On Saturday October 14, 2017 is the 34th Annual Fall Classic 5&10 Miler. We have once again been asked to provide communications support for this event. We are looking for volunteers to help with staffing stations along the route. If you can help out please contact Patrick our Public Service Coordinator at public-service@ncaarc.ca.

NOTE: This is a Saturday Run

Are you interested in getting your amateur radio operator’s certificate? NCAARC will be offering a class this fall. If you are interested in a course this fall please let us know by emailing training@ncaarc.ca. We are looking to start the course after all the back to school stuff is over and done with. Likely sometime in October, but dates will be confirmed once we have gauged the interest etc.
