AMATEUR RADIO

PUBLIC SERVICE EVENTS CALENDAR – 2024

(As of November 3, 2024)

[Ed Ricco, N5LI, has taken on coordination of amateur radio public service events for many years.  For this and other services he provides to the amateur radio community, we are deeply indebted.]

These are community events that require radio communications along their routes for logistic support, scoring and first aid.  In the finest tradition of amateur radio, local amateurs have stepped up to provide this public service.  These events also serve as a way for each ham to test his or her radio equipment under emergency conditions...and to have some fun and fellowship.

Again this year, Ed is seeking help for the following events (and more).  For more information or to volunteer, please contact Ed Ricco, N5LI unless otherwise indicated in the description of the particular event.  Contact: n5li@arrl.net. You can also call Ed at (h) 247-4866 or (w) 768-7314.

These are the events presently known to me.  There will be others; stay tuned.

Notes and comments: 

                1.   Completed events deleted.

                2.  The Duke City Marathon, held in late October, usually wraps up the events season.  This list will resume monthly publication in the spring of 2025.  If I learn of any events seeking communications assistance over the fall or winter months, I will circulate the information.

                3.  Thanks to everyone who volunteered for events over the 2024 season or helped spread the word about volunteer opportunities.

73, Ed Ricco N5LI
