OOPS!! I have to include more pictures from the picnic that I did not get in on the first batch. We also had members from the Stockton-Delta Club too!
Members from CARS and TCARS joined together for a fabulous picnic at Utica Park, also joining were the Lodi and Amador clubs. A wide variety of food was enjoyed by all, it makes a fine change to have an eyeball to eyeball QSO. Thanks go to Steve Airola and Charles Farr our chefs on the barbecue, even our section manager John Litz gave his seal of approval. Is it possible to do this next year?

| California Shakeout Emergency Drill UPDATEDTHURSDAY OCT 20, 2022 12:30 PM You can participate in a special annual emergency net with organizations across California. TCARES and TC Office of Emergency Services are planning an emergency NET to demonstrate the TCARES repeater infrastructure during a simulated communications outage following a simulated major earthquake incident. We are looking for MAXIMUM PARTICIPATION! Our goal is to see check-ins from Pinecrest to Jamestown, from Mariposa to Angels Camp, and from Modesto to Yosemite National Park! (AND ALL POINTS IN-BETWEEN) WORKING on that day? This net will be during the lunch hour on purpose, for those at a work place to be able to go out to your car and check-in from your workplace, to the degree that is possible for you. CONCISE checkins. We are looking for rapid efficient check-ins using the structure below. After the net is over, general chit-chat may resume. DRAFT CHECK-IN format. It will be a directed net, but we will not have a roll call. We will request check-ins by Alphabet Sequence Groups, based on your Suffix. (First letter after the number in your callsign.) ALPHA – GOLF, HOTEL – NOVEMBER, OSCAR – ZULU When you check-in, provide the following: YOUR CALL SIGN YOUR FIRST NAME YOUR LOCATION (neighborhood, town, place name) GRID POWER status, ON/OFF AREA DAMAGE REPORT (none, broken windows, impassable road/bridge) Sample: This is K6NED, Ned, Phoenix Lake, Power OUT, no damage to report. COPY MESSAGE: After we complete the checkins, The County OES coordinator will hand over an official statement regarding facts about the incident, the response by agencies, instructions regarding evacuation plans or resource centers available – to be read out on the air. Please have pen and paper ready to copy down the statement and be ready to share in your local area as you see fit. (in the event of a real emergency) Share over GMRS/FRS, in person, etc. Don’t forget… THIS IS A DRILL… (repeat as needed) NOTABLE LANDMARKS: One goal we have is hear check-ins from key facilities. Examples include: HOSPITAL COLLEGE AIRPORTS FIRE STATION FAIR GROUNDS UTILITIES FACILITY, ETC, ETC. PLUS each Neighborhood (EAST SONORA, CRYSTAL FALLS, CEDAR RIDGE, RAW HIDE, MI-WUK, LONG BARN, GROVELAND etc, etc) FINALLY, we will end with a simulated a “Repeater Down” scenario and have a quick SIMPLEX Net on 147.510 NET CONROL will be K6NED and will be conducted from the County Emergency Operations Center on Striker Ct. |
