Please contact me ASAP with any reassignments necessary.
Please use and respond to your tactical designator. Use FCC call-sign at the end of each series of transmissions.
EMERGENCY TRAFFIC ALWAYS HAS PRIORITY. PLEASE STAND BY UNTIL THE EMERGENCY HAS BEEN HANDLED. Participants should be referred to by participant number whenever possible, as this is how they are tracked.
1) Event start is in San Francisco, a swim from Alcatraz to Aquatic Park SF, bike from SF to Mill Valley, a run to Stinson and back. We are covering the run portion of the triathlon, and we should begin to get runners into Mill Valley at around 9:00. Time depends on the tide schedule for the swim portion.
2) Release times are approximate, based on past experience; maybe sooner, maybe later.
3) All stations should track the positions and the numbers of the first FIVE and last few runners, and relay to net control. Numbers are normally in grease pencil on the arm or leg. Since this is a Dolphin / South End only event we should have about 60 runners.
4) Please keep track of the numbers and dispositions of any runners who drop out at your location. Inform net control.
5) Remember to bring the usual supplies for an event, radios, spare battery, food, beverage, sunscreen, hat, etc.
6) Windy Gap is on the West side of Panoramic Hwy where it intersects Bay View Dr. Muir Woods Mailboxes is partway down Muir Woods Road from Panoramic Hwy to Muir Woods NP at the mailboxes (Muir Woods Road & Camino Dr.). White Gate is where the Dipsea Trail comes up from Steep Ravine a mile above Stinson Beach. The Stinson Beach turn is on Avenal at the bridge, near the Surfside Café outside the park.
Thanks for volunteering and have a great day. Randy Jenkins KA6BQF, Michael Fischer K6MLF, Rob Rowlands NZ6J
