Palm Beach County Amateur Radio Emergency Service

Description

Palm Beach County ARES/RACES: Amateur Radio Emergency Service & Radio Amateur Emergency Service co-exist as volunteer emergency communications services for the County depending on whether the disaster is officially declared. We focus on Amateur (Ham) Radio, Emergency Management, Communications and Community Service. We are the Primary back up for Palm Beach County communications in the event of an emergency. We also perform, free of charge, communications for Public Service Events, such as: walk-a-thons, bike-a-thons, parades and fund-raising events. ARES & RACES support the other Amateur Radio clubs in the County in holding beginner's classes, meetings and public service events. Please contact us if you would like to become a "Ham" or you already are one.
