Everyone volunteering for the Hospital fun walk / run are asked to meet near the new hospital's west parking lot.
The start / finish will be some where nearby, (it has been moved since I received the map).
Events get under way around 09:45.
I ask that everyone be at the Hospital around 09:00 hrs.
Just a reminder that the North Bay General Hospital Fun Run takes place tomorrow morning.
I have posted the map in the file section.
So far on the list are: Bruce VA3BDR, Gerry VE3YO and Bill VA3SPT
We could use some more help.
So please if you are available sign up on the NBARC site or send me an email silver@onlink.net.

The race starts at 8 AM, so if we meet up at Tim Horton's on Seymour
St. in North Bay, between 6:15-6:30 we should have plenty of time to
get breakfast and get over to the site (Google Maps has 1 h 8 min to
the Ecolodge).
-Repeater access into 147.15+ is spotty at the site;
primary simplex on 147.420, backup 146.520
-Car access to 3 out of 4 checkpoints confirmed (I will bring a mobile
radio/booster battery setup in case driving is impossible to the
fourth- KD8LWV)
-Tarps will be set up at the aid stations.
I am contacting you on behalf of the 1st North Bay Scout Troop, a group of which I am a member. They have expressed an interest in participating in the Jamboree on the Air (JOTA) scouting event. It is basically a 48hr field day for the youth to make contacts throughout the world. There is no scoring involved though contacts are logged and submitted to the National level. Being a Ham without an HF station, I was hoping that the North Bay Amateurs might be able to help us out.
This is a fun event that takes place in the morning. We are finished by noon. The route this year is through the new hospital grounds and around Canadore College/Nipissing University.
