SKYWARN SPOTTER TRAINING - March 27, Cary/Bond Park

The National Weather Service will conduct SKYWARN Spotter Training on 
Thursday, March 27, at 7:00 PM at the Cary Senior Center in Fred Bond Park 
(directions below).

The training is free, and is open to all Radio Amateurs and members of 
police, fire, and rescue departments from Wake and surrounding counties.

Talk-in directions will be available on the 146.88 repeater, and on 146.55 
MHz simplex for close-in vectoring.

The speaker will be Jeff Orrock, the new Warnings Coordination 
Meteorologist at the National Weather Service in Raleigh.  All attendees 
will receive a personal certificate of completion -- later in the 
mail.  Hurricane season starts just after the meeting on April 1, 
2003.  Since the Jeff is new this year, and new material has been added, 
the program will be worthwhile for all persons new and experienced.
