I am still looking for radio operators to help support the YMCA's Turkey Trot event on Thanksgiving Day. I've you've been on the fence, not sure about your plans, or whatever else please, please PLEASE, go to and sign up now. We need you. As of this morning I still?have 10 positions open.

If you've never heard of the Turkey Trot before (I'm surprised!) it is the Dallas YMCA's largest fundraising event with over 50 years of tradition?behind it. You can get an overview of the event from?

If you're wondering what you would do at the event as a radio operator, we have a number of different?positions available. The main thing we do is relay messages (in real time) between different areas of the race. There the start and finish lines are separated by a block or two, and there are water stops along the route. If you are athletic that is very helpful but it is not required. A number of the roles will work just fine for people with limited mobility.?

?

If you've never done a public service event before - that is just fine. The?Turkey?Trot is a good "first time" event.? It is also good practice for radio operators planning to work the Dallas Marathon next month.

?

If you can't come out yourself, you can still help support the event by spreading the word through your local nets, club meetings, email lists, etc.? All you need to say is "Go to W5FC.org and look at the top of the page". The signup is right there. Anything you do to get the word out will be appreciated.?
