In December 2007, a massive storm swept across the Pacific Northwest, cutting off 1.5 million residents from power and phone service. Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia were isolated—until amateur radio operators stepped in as the only lifeline to the outside world.
Join us November 9 at 7pm in the Blue Heron Auditorium to hear how radio operators became the backbone of Oregon's emergency response when all other systems failed. Shell Haffner and Steve Jensen, Emergency Coordinator for Clackamas County Amateur Radio, will share this remarkable story and show us how to prepare for the next crisis.
