Sign up for the Alaska Run for Women event

It’s time to sign up for the 2024 Alaska Run for Women. It will be held on Saturday, June 8, 2024, and is a half day event.

Get your HT charged, load up on mosquito repellant, pack a snack, and come out and exercise your equipment and skills while supporting a worthy charity. If you are a new ham, or interested in becoming a ham, we will pair you with someone experienced to gain experience.

The Anchorage Amateur Radio Club provides situational awareness and safety support for these events. It is fun and we need your help, so please sign up. This event typically utilizes 10 ham radio volunteers, but there is no limit.  Positions staffed typically are:

Net Control

Start/Finish shadow

Quad area (near start finish)

Course Safety 1 (Bike mobile)

Course Safety 2 (Bike mobile)

Goose Lake (2 volunteers last year)

Substation

CDC Aid Station

Health and Wellness

There are more events later this summer. Check out https://kl7aa.org/ for updates and the website will be updated soon to include 2024 events.

More info is available under the Public Service Activities tab on the main menu.

To volunteer, please contact Jim McDonald KL4Q at os2mac@gmail.com (please cc info@kl7aa.org to allow for tracking volunteers).

Additional information will be provided as it becomes available closer to the event.
