N6RAS appointed Chief Radio Officer
May 31, 2005 20:16
Peter Barbour, N6RAS has been appointed by the Huntington Beach Emergency Services Office as HB RACES Chief Radio Officer effective June 1, 2005. Peter has served HB RACES as Co-Events Officer, Assistant Radio Officer and most recently as Co-Chief Radio Officer. The change in RACES leadership was prompted by Bill Honeyman's (KG6CNL) relocation to Northern California.
Larry Henderson, KF6ZB was asked to fill the vacant Assistant Radio Officer position. I am pleased to report that Larry has accepted this challenging role. He is looking forward to both keeping Peter in line and helping the HB RACES organization stay focused and ready to respond. Larry brings over 21 years of service with HB RACES to his new role. As the Assistant Radio
Officer, Larry holds the authority to perform all duties of the Chief Radio Officer when I'm unavailable.
Both Larry and I have a strong commitment to continue to improve the HB RACES organization. We will be working to ensure that our personnel have the equipment, knowledge and training that is needed to effectively serve the city of Huntington Beach in an emergency. We will also work to ensure that the management structure of our organization is strong and functional.
We have much to be proud of both as an organization and as amateur radio hobbyists. I hope that each of you renew your commitment to HB RACES and our activities. Continue to make the gifts of your time and efforts which enable us to be a strong and viable resource for the city of Huntington Beach and a role model for others.
