School 5K Resolution Run!!   This annual event is a GREAT TIME!!  30 plus
operators are needed to provide health/safety communications and to
illuminate the course with their car headlights.  The race begins at 8pm
again this year with operators asked to report by 7pm.  However everyone is
invited to come out earlier for some pre-event festivities!  Assorted food
will be available in the XWARN Trailer along with some great friends.  Come
out and enjoy!

 

Net Control will be on the 147.165 (100hz PL) XWARN Repeater as our PRIMARY
