Brainerd Area Amateur Radio Club  

Club Membership Meeting....February 24, 2005

The February membership meeting of the Brainerd Area Amateur Radio Club was held at the Merrifield Marathons Center.

Our thanks to Roger W0WUJ for making the arrangements.

The assembled group posed for a photo in front of an impressive American Flag.  

At 8 PM, the speaker was Kevin Mahle, Director of Emergency Management, who took the place of Dave Schuldheisz, KBØSCT.  Mahle is the former Fire Chief of the City of Brainerd. 

His topic was Emergency Management in Crow Wing County. That included an Overview of Emergency Management, role of the manager, overview of public safety communication responsibilities, and role for the BAARC in Multiple Agency Coordination.

Mahle showed a PowerPoint presentation on the May 31, 2002, fire south of Brainerd. BAARC members will be working with Mahle, in the future at disaster drills and possibly in real disaster situations. Kevin Mahle is not a licensed ham, but has expressed an interest in studying for the exam.

 
Thanks to John WØJGY for arranging the speaker.
The next membership meeting of the BAARC will be at the Forestview Middle School on Thursday, March 31st.  Everyone is welcome to attend.  Hope to see you there.  Jim Talbott WØYA
