York County REACT #6123 had a table in the display area of the fair. We handed out REACT info sheets for recruiting purposes. We also had examples of MURS, FRS bubble pack, GMRS and Amateur handhelds. We explained the use for each radio and handed out a NationalSOS/FRS 1 flyer. One of our team members was also a presenter with a class on Family Preparedness.
We helped the local Amateur radio operators set up their antenna. The morning was overcast and wet. When the rain got heavier we setup a screen tent to keep the rain off the HAM gear.
Our Communications vehicle was the only one to make it to the fair.
