WE NEED YOUR HELP 

The North Island Amateur Radio Society is calling on the amateur radio community and any other interested individuals to help sustain the Northern part of the Vancouver Island Trunk System. NIARS doesn’t raise lots of money from dues but when there is a small capital expenditure required, we need to turn to the amateur community.

WHAT WE PLAN TO DO

The roof of the Shelley Mt. repeater in Port McNeil is wearing out and in need of replacement. The plan is for the roof to be replaced with a new metal one.  The building roof is only 8’x8′ in size.

We plan to make this a fun and enjoyable 3 or 4 day summer camp out work party to get this job complete. Bring your family and join us for the camp out!

HOW CAN YOU HELP 

We are now planning out this work party and camp out. Anyone is welcome to help, and if you have skills in the building trades your experience is certainly needed. If you would like to be involved, please drop us a note – ( ve7lse@shaw.ca ).

Even if you can’t hammer or haul you can help with a contribution. Donated materials are also much appreciated!
