ARES/ACS Training and North Kawartha Exercise

The Corn Roast and ARES Training Dates have been switched.

This is an invitation to all current ARES/ACS members as well as to anyone who is interested in becoming a member of Peterborough Amateur Radio Emergency Service / Auxiliary Communications Service.  ARES/ACS members who completed the training last year, are not required to attend this year’s training but are encouraged to participate to add input to the experience.

Peterborough ARES/ACS is holding an all day in class training session Sunday, September 8th, starting at 9:00 am finishing around 4:00 pm with a one hour break for lunch.  The location for the training is at the Otonabee-South Monaghan Fire Station 1 in Keene located at 21 Third Street.

Part Two of the training will be a Field Exercise in the Municipality of North Kawartha on Tuesday September 10th, starting at 10:00 am.  This exercise is working in conjunction with North Kawartha’s Emergency Management annual training as required by Emergency Management Ontario. We will also be scheduling an alternate Field Exercise on a Saturday later in September or October as  for those who cannot be at the Tuesday exercise.

Please RSVP to Harmen, VE3EMA/VA3OU at ve3ema@ve3pbo.ca by September 4th if you wish to participate.
