ARES volunteers, we have been asked by the State EM to stand up an alternate AUXCOMM communications point at our EOC. Volunteers will need to be at least a general licensee.
Currently we plan to activate on Wednesday 10/9 at 0700 and be active till Friday morning 10/11 at 0700. Shifts are split into 8 hours: 0700-1500, 1500-2200, 2200-0700. At least on volunteer is needed per shift however, 2 would be helpful. We have each shift set to allow for up to 3 volunteers in case anyone would like to observe that hasn’t been involved in an activation like this before.
Due to liability concerns, minors (children under 18) are not permitted to volunteer or accompany our volunteers during events. With any event we work, please make sure to bring necessary personal items such as hydration, snacks, sunscreen, chairs or any other items you may need for the incident (traffic vests, etc.) While we strive to have supplies at each event, please be prepared in case something comes up that prevents your access to these supplies at the event. After action reports can be sent to [email protected].
