2008 Loon Echo Hike and Bike Trek We are looking for 25 or so operators for communications
for the, Saturday, September 20th 2008 Loon Echo Hike and Bike trek.
All levels of experience are invited to participate. We are especially

positions to be manned. For those who have participated in the past,
the fun and excitement continues. For the first timers, come and join
in the fun and practice your emergency communications skills.
Andy Club On-air Meeting and Net EVENT LISTINGS FOR 2008!!!!! If you are responsible for a hamfest or other event, please make sure to send your listing in as soon as you have the date and other info. All info to: John Goran at: k1jjs@arrl.net. Does your Public Service Event Need Additional Ham Radio Volunteers?? If your club or group offers communications for Public Service Events and are in need of additional communications volunteers, we'd be pleased to post your event information to the ARRL Maine Section Web Page and have it announced by the PIO's on various Maine nets. The following information is required: event description, date, location, arrival time, sign up deadline and contact information (email/phone) along with any additional requirements. With this information getting out to more of the Ham Radio Community we are hoping all events will have the volunteers needed, and those that do volunteer can schedule in advance.
