FREE Community Radio Workshop!
Stay Connected. Be Prepared. Have Fun!
Did you know that two-way radios can help keep our community connected when cell phones, internet, and other communication services aren't available?
Join us for a FREE, hands-on Community Radio Workshop where we'll learn how to use our radios, practice communicating with neighbors, and discover how these handy devices can help us stay connected during emergencies.
