Subject: Carmel Marathon Amateur Radio Support Request

Good Morning Neighbors;

Wanted to request from you if you could reach out to your county hams or 
those that may want to have some fun in Carmel in support of the 
marathon.  Here is the info I’m sending out below, and appreciate any 
support you may be able to provide!

Good Morning All;

We were just recently asked to again provide amateur radio assistance at 
the water stops for this years race, scheduled for Saturday, March 30th, 
2019.  This years race has several elite runners participating as it 
will allow them to qualify for the 2020 olympics!  Race officials are 
anticipating more spectators and a continual growth of runners in this 
nationally recognized event.

Event information is at: https://www.carmelmarathon.com/event-information

We have 17 water stops to cover, and we can make assignments based upon 
when and for how long you are available.  We will be using the Hamilton 
County RACES/ARES repeaters, so all that is needed is an HT, maybe a 
second battery, and your personal supplies for the day.  First stations 
will need to be staffed at 6:50am with the last station being released 
at 1:15pm, so we are able to accommodate early risers and those that 
want to assist during the day.

Please note my email change - mikealley.w9msk at gmail.com 
<mailto:mikealley.w9msk at gmail.com>, and you can also reach me at 
w9msk at arrl.net <mailto:w9msk at arrl.net>.  If you reply to this email or 
send to my earthlink.net <http://earthlink.net/> address, you may get 
caught up in my spam folder, which is why I am trying to migrate over to 
gmail.

Please help support this amazing event and thank you for your support!

~ Mike
