N5VCX VOLUNTEER UPDATE

The new year is upon us and the public appear to be more aware of amateur radio.
The number of events that are requesting amateur radio communications is growing
and we need to support them. Here are several upcoming Public Service and other
amateur radio related events needing amateur radio operators for communications
or participation. Operators of web sites and remail list, post this information on your
web site. Please show your support for amateur radio by coming out to help or by
attending the events.

Thanks,
