<font face="Verdana">I've participated in this event for the last 2
years. As Terry says below, it is a low pressure event and it
addresses one of the basic tenets of Amateur Radio, Public
Service.<br>
<br>
All you need is an HT (I think they do have loaners if you don't
have one) and a comfy jacket as it can be a bit chilly on an early
October morning. So come out and meet some fellow hams, mingle
with folks that have FAR too much energy for that hour of the
morning and taken in the pumpkin spice tinged air!<br>
<br>
(Disclaimer: Pumpkin Spice is not provided - BYO if you choose to
imbibe. Please Enjoy Pumpkin Spice Responsibly)<br>
