OCTOBER 2012 MISSOURI SECTION NEWS
DALE BAGLEY, K0KY MO SM
I am so impressed by all the Amateurs who volunteered to help
with this year's Bike MS events. There were at least three MS
Rides in Missouri. The Express Scripts Gateway Getaway Ride that
was held around Columbia, MO, the Missouri Bike MS Ozark Ride
that started in Joplin, MO, and the Kansas City Ride MS that was
held in the western part of the State. I believe that there were
about 400 riders in the Express Scripts Gateway Ride MS. I don't
have the numbers for the other two rides, but I'm sure that they
were equally successful. In addition to the tens of thousands of
dollars that are collected for projects related to MS treatment
and research, the events are a great opportunity for Amateurs to
show their capabilities and to practice emergency communication.
As Cliff Ahrens, KOCA, the Midwest Director, noted in the Midwest
Division News, I have been declared re-elected to another term as
the Missouri Section Manager for another term beginning January
1, 2013. I am looking forward to the opportunity to continue
serving as the Missouri Section Manager. I will continue to do
my best to help the members and potential members of the ARRL.
All of the ideas and suggestions from the Missouri Section
membership I receive will be passed on to the ARRL Leadership and
Staff at ARRL HQ in Newington, CT.
I am going to take this opportunity to express my appreciation to
the MO Section Cabinet. The Missouri Section is blessed the have
Ken Baremore, W0KRB as its Section Emergency Coordinator and to
have the outstanding services of Section Traffic Manager, Larry
Wilson, K0RWL. I appreciate all the support of the ARRL program
that is provided by the Assistant Section Managers, Larry Ballew,
AB0HP, Bill Coby, KB0MWG, John Seals, WR0R, and Curtis Roach,
WB4NMG. Keith Haye, WE0G, does a wonderful job with the
Affiliated Club program as the Section ACC and Dennis McCarthy,
AA0A, who has been an important part of the Public Information
program as the Section PIC. I want to thank Wayland Mac McKenzie,
K4CHS's efforts as the Technical Coordinator. The Missouri
Section is fortunate to have Norm Lampton, KC0FNA as their
talented and hands on State Government Liaison. No one could be
prouder of the leadership and efforts of our Section Cabinet.
