Dear Mayor Di Gullio;
The members of the Clallam County Amateur Radio Club and Clallam County
Amateur Radio Emergency Service invite you and the Port Angeles City Council
members to attend our Amateur Radio Field Day. The event will be held at the
Clallam County Fairgrounds from noon, 27 June until noon, 28 June.
The purpose of Field Day is to operate a variety of radio equipment without using
conventional power for twenty-four hours. During this time we will communicate
with other amateur radio stations throughout the United States and internationally.
Over the years our mission has expanded to include emergency communications,
disaster preparedness and response, and assisting the community with public
events such as parades and races. This is an especially important year for our
amateur radio community as we prepare for a major role in the Cascadia Rising
Homeland Security exercise in 2016.
Field Day displays will be open to the public from noon until 4 PM on Saturday,June
27th and this is our opportunity to show everyone what"HAM"radio can do. We
will even have a tent where anyone can try communicating on amateur radio.

Feel free to visit at any time. If you or any member of the Council desires an escort,
please email me the approximate time of your visit and that will be arranged. Thank
you for your efforts on behalf of our community, and we hope to see you at Field
Day.
Sincerely;
Bruce N. Reiter
