Communications Support for Dave Birtwell Walk for Alzheimer's

 On Saturday, May 18th, ham radio operators from FARA and BARC provided communications support for the Dave Birtwell Walk for Alzheimer's, held at the Scusset Beach State Reservation in Sandwich. 

Jon-N1ILZ was net control and Irish-KC1TNX staffed the Med Tent.  Doug-N1OEI and Stephen-KC1QEM provided comm for two golf carts. Rich Fox-KC1TCA and John Grullon-KC1SAT worked water stops. Barry-KB1TLR monitored the walk turn-around, keeping folks on course. Chris-WA1CMR teamed up with Jamie Crowell, the Walk Captain, in a third golf cart to monitor the course.  

Despite the inclement weather we got the job done. We have received numerous thanks from the walk organizers and compliments on our professionalism. Well done team!
