FIELD DAY 2014 - THE NATIONAL
EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS EXERCISE
AT WELLINGTON'S VILLAGE PARK 
 
This is the event many people have been waiting for. 
It's the opportunity to learn more about different
aspects of emergency communications. 
Experienced hams will see unusual antennas they may have dreamed of or were only read about in antenna handbooks!

It is also a time to work as a team and have some fun too.

From the listing of antennas and activities below,
you can imagine a lot of manpower is needed...
both for setup, operating and logging. 
The success of the Field Day exercise will depend upon YOU! 
Drop by, give a few hours. 
Better yet, bring friends and neighbors!
