From Eric Ramsy;

I recently attended a planning meeting for an event in which they requested ham radio support.

Web site for the event: http://www.winforkctri.org/

Location: Smithville Lake

Anticipated race participants: 1000

Anticipated crowd: 3000

Event Date: July 25

Mobile Command set up: Friday July 24 afternoon or evening and staff on Saturday July 25 from 7am to noon.

Additional ARES posts:

·         Mobile Command – two to three

·         one as a shadow in the event support car

·         one or more at the bike turnaround

·         one or more at the transition point in sailboat cove

See maps to get an idea of where these posts will be located.

Primary purpose is to assist with communication due to potential for radios to be too busy or not working. Especially if an emergency needs to be communicated.

So, need minimum of 5, prefer 8, 10, 12???

Thanks for considering. Please let me know if ARES can support this request.
