All CERT members and the general public are invited to see what Amateur Radio emergency communications is all about on June 23 from 1:00 p.m. until 10:00 p.m. at Navarre Beach.

The Emerald Coast Amateur Radio Association (ECARA), of which several CERT members are a part of, will be participating in their annual Field Day exercise.  This is where they will operate Amateur Radio transceivers under simulated emergency operating conditions and make contact with as many other operators throughout the country doing the same thing.

Bring the family and make a day of it at the beach and see what Amateur Radio can do for you during a disaster situation.  They can even get you to talk on the air and make a contact...no license is required!

For more information, you can visit ECARA's website.

Our next team meeting will be held on June 27 at 6:00 p.m. (1800 hours) at the Holley-Navarre Senior Center, 8476 Gordon Goodin Lane, across the street from the Navarre Library.  All CERT members are STRONGLY encouraged to attend.  Visitors are also welcome, but we ask that you email our Coordinator for more information.
