All licensed radio amateurs on Hawaii Island are invited to volunteer their time to support the 18 March 2018 Hilo Marathon.

With net control at Onekahakaha Park, ham operators will “ensure coordination between aid stations and race officials, and assist with health and safety when needed.” For more information, please call WH6EXS at 1-443-492-9272 or send a message to the PERC Facebook page: @KH6PRC.”
