Do you have the cheat sheets and any other paperwork we may need? Do any of us need to update the logging software from last year?

NEWS Alert

Good fortune smiled on us when we moved our Field Day and Summer Fest event from the Coon Creek area. Cal Fire reports the following as of 10:30PM tonight (6/24/15):

The Lake Fire was reported just before 4:00 pm on June 17, 2015. The cause of the fire is under investigation. It is approximately 20,875 acres in size and burning in timber. It is currently 27% contained.

The fire began in the Barton Flats area and moved eastward towards the Heart Bar and Coon Creek areas and southward into the San Gorgonio Wilderness. Highway 38 is closed between Angelus Oaks to Lake Williams. Evacuations include: Areas east of Angelus Oaks, Onyx Summit, Barton Flats, Seven Oaks, Heart Bar and homes off of Rainbow Lane. All Hiking Trails into the San Gorgonio Wilderness Area have been closed due to the proximity of the fire to these trails. The Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) is closed from Whitewater Preserve to Onyx Summit

Very sad!!!

What time will folks begin arriving on Friday and do you know which one of the two group camps at McGill we'll be occupying? I have Friday off and I'm going to try and get an early start.

A few of us will be arriving as early as about 9:30AM. We are in Group Campsite B. Once I arrive, I will place an OAUSA banner at the entrance to the campsite.

You can use either the Frazer repeater (see above for info ) or simplex at 145.570 to contact us as you get near the campsite.
