Good evening, CERTizens!
At Saturday's meeting, I expressed regret that we were unable to talk
about CERT at the RARSfest event. Fortunately, I was wrong! RARSfest
will be held on Saturday, 2 April from 8 AM to3:30 PM.
For those who don't know, RARSfest is an annual swap meet and vendor
exhibition sponsored by the Raleigh Amateur Radio Society (RARS) and
held at the state fairgrounds. RARS seems very excited to have us there.
They are offering a free table in the exhibition hall on the condition
that those manning the table pays for their admission. I have also heard
from a RARS ham who was active with Raleigh-Wake CERT and is interested
in joining our team.
The only drawback is that I cannot attend as I will be traveling that
day. If anyone would like to attend and talk about CERT I think we would
find a very receptive audience!
Here are the details on RARSfest:

If you would like to attend on CERT's behalf, perhaps our grant money
can pay for your admission.
Let me know if you would like to work a shift and discuss CERT and I
will make arrangements. Thanks!
Regards,
Mark
