News from Around the County

Our June monthly meeting will be in person and on Zoom. Our location is Warner Pacific University (SE 68th Ave and SE Division St in Portland). This month our speaker, Jeff KI7TVE, will be reviewing the Incident Command System (ICS). We will continue handing out our latest grant items – warm winter beanies – to all members.

The GPS Food drive has moved to Saturday, August 22. Please save the date! This event is really fun and we are hoping that the change to summer will bring much more participation. Mobile operations are a big part of emergency communications.

We are still looking for volunteers for the summer Ultra Marathons. You can sign up here.

Field Day is coming on June 27 and 28. Some of us will be up on Mt. Hood for the WY’East Ultra marathon. Those who are not can join with Portland Amateur Radio Club (PARC) or Hoodview Amateur Radio Club (HARC). PARC will be out in Hillsboro and HARC will be up at Larch Mountain. Check their websites for more details: W7LT.org and WB7QIW.org.
