    Part of our mission statement says that we will provide communication services for community events when requested. We have been requested to provide assistance for the two Hypothermic Half Marathons that The Running Room organizes in north Edmonton.

    Dates – February 7 and February 21, 2016
    Time – On station assignment at 0730, First competitors are off the start line at 0800. This event usually wraps up at about 1300 with an awesome brunch at the Highlands Golf Course.

    You might be thinking “But it’s February and it’s freezing out!”. Don’t worry because you can work your station from inside your vehicle and stay warm.

    So how do you sign up you’re asking. Contact our Public Service Committee Chair, Patrick – VE6PY at ve6py@ncaarc.ca

    If you haven’t worked a public service event before, don’t be shy about volunteering. Patrick will pair you up with someone who has worked events before to show you the ins and outs.

    Hope to see you out!

  • Silent Key: VE6PTL

    It is with sadness that I announce we have lost Tom (VE6PTL).  Tom was one of the first guys I met at a club breakfast.  Always willing  to share a bit about radio and help out with events.

    VE6PTL

    1934 – 2015
    On Friday, October 16, 2015, Thomas James Lauder of Edmonton, Alberta passed away at the age of 80 years.
    He will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 57 years, Patricia; daughter, Mary Jo; sister-in-law and brother-in-law Maureen and Neil McLennan; brother-in-law and sister-in-law Dennis and Frieda O’Leary; cousins Jim and Sheila McLachlin; Nancy and Ivan Hall; Sylvia Dickson; and John Low.
    As per Tom’s request, there will be no service. In lieu of flowers and cards, Memorial Donations may be made in Tom Lauder’s name to Spinal Cord Injury Treatment Centre (Northern Alberta) Society at P.O. Box 76007, Southgate, Edmonton, Alberta, T6H 5Y7.

    From reading a comment on the webpage I see that Tom was active at the Space and Science Centre running the station and sharing his love of the hobby.

    Tom you will be missed.
