Region-3 ARES® Dist-81RACES operate as two organizations but transparently as one. Many local ham radio operators who volunteer their expertise, time and resources to provide primary and supplemental communications to government agencies, private disaster response organizations and other nonprofit organizations. Other ARES®/RACES organizations are present throughout the United States. Some examples of the services provided by ARES®/RACES include: · · Severe weather spotting assistance for the National Weather Service. · · Supplemental communications support to Emergency Management, law enforcement, fire and emergency medical services during all types of emergencies and disasters. · · Primary and supplemental communications support during disasters and communications emergencies for private disaster response organizations. · · Primary communications for nonprofit organizations during events and activities such as marathons, parades and large outdoor events.
If you are a ham radio operator interested in public service, review this site and contact your county ARES® Emergency Coordinator, or Toby Driscoll, at n5sim@arrl.net. If you are not involved in ham radio and are interested in communications and public service, we want to talk with you! We are always looking for interested individuals who want to uniquely serve their communities. All it takes to get an FCC issued ham radio license is the desire to learn. If you are in emergency management, state or federal government, law enforcement, fire service, emergency medical service, health service, or a private disaster support agency and are not engaged with your local ARES®/RACES group, please contact me. I’ll put you in touch with your county or district emergency coordinator. Enjoy the site! Learn from it, generate ideas to take back to your organizations and then share those ideas with us so we can share them with others. Remember, we provide communications when no one else can! 73’s N5SIM |
