Support for LoSeCa foundation’s 5/10K Run

Oct20

Written by VA6AWS

Today members of the NCAARC assisted with communications support for the LoSeCa foundation’s 5 and 10 K run in St. Albert. Members deployed our communications trailer and setup stations along the route to provide assistance getting messages back to the race organisers. I must say this is the first event I have volunteered at that we’ve relayed back to race officials that there was a moose and her calf on the course! The weather cooperated for the runners, but I think all volunteers would agree with me another 5 degrees warmer would have been great for us.

Thanks Paul (VE6PGA) for organizing the event from the club side. Thanks Ernie (VE6EC) and Dave (VE6SKI) for holding down the net control duties in the trailer. Thanks Gerry (VE6GBH), Jeff (VE6JXN), Jared (VA6JAW), and Steve (VE6CYR) for staffing the stations on the route. The event went off great, thanks to all your help. Looking forward to seeing you all on the next one!
