B1st Peeper 5k

Strafford ARES is looking for volunteers to help with the B1st Peeper 5k run/walk. The event takes place on May 10, 2008 at 9:00AM at the TD Banknorth on Rte 125 in Barrington. We're looking for 10 hams with handi-talkies to spread around the course.

Don't forget to include your tee-shirt size!

New Look

If you think that the GBRA website has taken on a new look, you're right.

The main page is now a blog, which should make adding new items quicker and easier.

For the user, it means you can find recent information quickly and you can also browse the archives using the menu on the right.

Transitioning to a blog also means you can subscribe to it using your favorite RSS reader or add it to your homepage if you use Yahoo, Google, or one of the other web portals that support customized RSS feeds.

Other than that all of the menu choices are the same, they've just been moved to the side.

There are bound to be some glitches which we will mop up as they are found. If you notice problems, feel free to contact the webmaster, N1QA, at arrl.net.

Strafford County ARES Looking for New Members

Strafford County ARES is looking for new members. There will be an information meeting, Monday, February 19, 2007 at Rochester Community Center at 7:00 PM.

This will be a good opportunity to find out what ARES is all about, ask questions and get to meet ARES leadership.

We are in desperate need of active members, because in time of real emergency, we will probably not be able to meet our commitments to the local area.

There will be coffee and doughnuts served.

Thank you,

Larry Inman K1SRJ
EC Strafford County ARES
