Welcome to West Valley ARC in Sun City, AZ
EmComm Committee Chair Needed!
WVARC needs someone to chair its EmComm Committee. It doesn't require a lot of experience or time. The club is not looking for coordination with other county entities, but would rather encourage preparation and communication amongst our club members desiring to know how to respond to local emergencies. We would love to see an EmComm exercise once every month or two, to sharpen our communications skills. We are looking for fun and educational exercises. Does this sound like you?
Please contact Josh at president@westvalleyarc.com for more information.
Skywarn Training Scheduled for Apr/May 2026
Did you know that your Skywarn training is recurrent and needs to be renewed every two years? Whether recurrent or a new recruit, three in-person classes will be conducted in April and two virtual classes will be offered in May.
Don't miss your chance! These classes are only offered in the spring.
Please see : https://www.weather.gov/psr/skywarn.html for available dates/times or to sign up.
Net Controllers Needed!
Volunteering to Host a Net is the easiest way:
- to find out if you like being a Net Control.
- to better your skills as a Net Control before tackling a more stressful situation.
- to provide a variety of styles and subjects to our nets.
- to participate and build confidence in ham radio communication!
No need to be a club member, but you do need to be a licensed Amateur Radio Operator. Who knows, after a time or two, you may find that you really like being a Net Control and become one of our regulars. Please take a moment to look at the sample preamble HERE and let our Net Manager Matt, N0SNO, know that you would like to give it a try at: nets@westvalleyarc.com.
