To All CCAR  members:

On Saturday April 18  at 0900 we will have a Skywarn presentation using Zoom video software.  I will send out an “Invitation”  to join on Friday April 17.

In the meantime this Saturday April 11 at 1000 hrs, I’ll have a test Zoom meeting for anyone not familiar with this software.  I’ll send the “Invitation” to join  tomorrow April 10. 

If you plan to attend the Skywarn training I’d like to see you this Saturday using Zoom  or send me an e-mail to:

CANCELED – Skywarn refresher – April 2020

- by CCAR Administrator

In April, we’ll have a Skywarn refresher/training session for the CCAR team.

The training session will take the place of the April Tech Rally.  There is a chance we’ll need to move to April 18th instead of the 11th, in order to accommodate everyone.

 If you are a CCAR member this is a class that we want everyone to take, and it is expected for anyone in an ARES/RACES group as well.

 PLEASE REPLY TO THIS MESSAGE if you will attend SkyWarn training in April, so I can get an early headcount for the NWS instructor, and schedule a location that will fit everyone.

 Thanks in advance, and as always, thank you for your service to Chester County ARES/RACES, to Chester County DES, and to the residents of Chester County.

Dave Flad / KB3YCK

Emergency Coordinator
