The town of Bridgeville will host the annual Apple Scrapple Festival on Saturday, October 15th. This town-wide event draws thousands of visitors to enjoy the rides, exhibitions, concerts, and food. Sussex County AUXCOMM will be supporting the Mobile Command Unit by providing amateur radio operators to
cover specific key locations throughout the event in addition to observing the crowd and reporting any incident requiring emergency response. We also interface with the public providing them with critical information like where the restrooms are located, and, maybe, where they parked their car!
This is where you come in! We need several dozen operators to fully cover this event. Positions are available for full or half day operation. A VHF/UHF hand held radio is all that is needed, though a spare battery and surveillance or speaker mic is recommended. Participating Volunteers are usually fed well by the town!
Please consider giving up all or part of the day to provide a meaningful service to the community. Volunteers will operate in pairs First timers need not worry about knowing what to expect as you will be teamed with an experienced operator.
To get on the roster and receive further details as we get closer, please email ws3eoc@gmail.com with 2022 Apple in the subject line. Indicate whether you are available for morning, afternoon, or both shifts.
