The West Essex Amateur Radio Club (WEARC) along with Arc² and the American Red Cross will participate in the annual ARRL Field Day event. The event takes place over 24 hours and starting at 2pm on Saturday June 28 running through Sunday June 29 at 2pm. 

ARRL Field Day is the most popular on-the-air event held annually in the US and Canada. On the fourth weekend of June, more than 31,000 radio amateurs gather with their clubs, groups or simply with friends to operate from remote locations. It combines public service, emergency preparedness, community outreach, and technical skills all in a single event. Field Day has been an annual event since 1933, and remains the most popular event in ham radio.

Come out and visit the American Red Cross for this event and learn how we prepare for emergencies and plan to assist the public when other lines of communication fail.
