One reason for tents is that the shelter has no protection from black
flies and mosquitoes. The tents have screens.

Hello, Chris,
The shelter is pretty big, so I'm not sure you really nead two cabin tents.
Once I get the time and date info from you, I can write up a post and use my db to send the post around to hams in different towns and ask them to post on Front Porch Forums. "Attention all ham radio operators and the ham-curious! etc etc
73,

*Subject:* [CVARC] Field Day
Field Day is fast approaching! Sorry for the typos as I am writing on my
phone. I am looking for volunteers to take care of some things:
1. Deploy the signage on Saturday (I have the signage just need someone
to take it)
2. Someone to write a flyer for advertising our event.
3. Volunteers to post info on Front porch forum in each town. (need one
person per town)
4. Anyone into photography that would like to help document the event for
the future?
5. Someone to get Field Day info from ARRL to handout. ( I think it's free)
6. Food? Who would like to bring what?
7. Anyone have a cabin style tent? I have one for one of the two HF
stations but looking for another
8. Someone to help me transport tower and antenna gear on Friday night.
(everything brakes down to 8 foot sections)
9. Volunteers to help set up and take down. I will be at the site from
5pm on Friday until everything is gone on Sunday
