Field Day


 

Tim etal:

I just finished the ARRL Field Day PR workshop which had a lot of good tips. My team and I will work on a press release and proclamations this weekend and hopefully have them for board review next week.

Awesome,

I updated the Field Day website, removing the link to last year's sign up sheet, as it was outdated and I hadn't made one for this year yet.

I'd love to hear any thoughts from the ARRL workshop that we can implement on our Field Day web page:?

You have a TEAM??


 

I updated the FD page, and updated the SignUpGenius page for 2025 dates and times.
Created a new link between the two, so now any promotion can send people to

PARK web page ¡ª

or

Sign Up Page ¡ª

Last year it took some time to wrangle people for the overnight, so I figured with 2 months left, it'd be about time to start wrangling now.

Rob,

Thanks for logging in to that.

Are there any tips we might leverage for making a flyer to have on hand at the park for Field Day - and also possibly at the club table at the ham fest in early June?

I quickly threw one together using Chat GPT to just scrape data, - specifically gear to non-radio people.
It's a legal-sized trifold. Simple cover,
three columns about the hobby, and two columns about the club.
It's just a rough draft, changes and recommendations welcome.

This look great. ?Thank you, Anthony.

We point out that in emergency situations when normal infrastructure is down, we can step up and provide communications. My suggestion would be to also point out that even in non-emergency situations, we are not dependent on any fixed infrastructure to do what we do.
