From n8ado at woh.rr.com Sun Nov 5 15:32:16 2023 From: n8ado at woh.rr.com (Bob Baker N8ADO) Date: Sun, 5 Nov 2023 16:32:16 -0500 Subject: [XWARN] Mid East Challenge, plus a few other items Message-ID: Mid-East Challenge?Cross Country Invitational Saturday 18 November 2023 10:30 am - Noon Indian Riffle Park in Kettering. Elite runners from Ohio and neighboring states. Link to folder with the course map: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XR74b23hQZy7sNWjF3Y7TL1fFD2CGjRC/view?usp=sharing Two races. 11am and 1130.? Arrive at the park a 1/2 hour before the first event. We will relay to the anouncer the times and the states for the first three runners at Mile 1 and Mile 2. It takes two or three sets of eyes to do this. If we get enough volunteers, we will add a few safety spotters to a couple of challenging spots on the course. Bring a notepad to jot down the runner times. We will plan to use the Montgomery Simplex tactical frequency of 146.415 with the Greene Simplex tactical frequency of 147.555 as backup. Contact n8ado at woh.rr.com We usually meet for breakfast before the event. More details will be provided to the volunteers who sign up. This is one of the last events for 2023. On Thanksgiving morning is the Miamisburg Turkey Trot (5 Miler), but Jack KM8N tells me that his roster is full. If you wish to get involved, check with Jack at triton48 at woh.rr.com In past years, we have supported the Resolution Run on New Year's Eve, but this event seems to have faded into history. If anything changes, I will send out a message. I expect that the first event for 2024 will be the Xenia Marathon on the first Sunday in April. The best place to see notifications of upcoming events in the Dayton/Miami Valley region is the District 3 ARES website: ohd3ares.org I also have a mail list for people who wish to receive notifications of events that I know about. Send a message to AFM.Hams at gmail.com and ask to be added to the events notification list. Also, send me a message if you would like to get involved in the Greene County Amateur Radio Emergency Service. We have a weekly net Tuesdays at 2100 local time on the 146.91 (-offset) repeater (except the fourth Tuesday, 442.725, +offset). We have in-person meetings on the Last Monday of the month (except December and a few others when conflicts arise--check GCARES.net) at 7PM in the training room at BTFD Station 61.
