ARES stands for Amateur Radio Emergency Service. These are amateur radio (HAM radio) operators in Outagamie County that work with local Emergency Government, Red Cross, National Weather Service, and other private and public disaster relief organizations. These operators volunteer their time, equipment, and communication skills when called on to help. At this time our group consist of about 50 members. They provide assistance to our community in times of disaster. These people have been trained by the National Weather Service, Red Cross, and Emergency Government on assisting when needed.

Our Emergency Coordinator is Stanley Piekarczyk\KE6IFC.  Stan can be reached at his residence for further information regarding our ARES group. Stan's number is (920)982-9770 or you can E-mail him at the address listed below.

The Assistant EC's consist of Alan VanDynHoven\KB9BYQ, Steve Pelletier\KB9OAL, Bob Bain\N9LDA, Mark Heimmermann\KF9CS, Lester Morse\KA9LAR, and Steve Lamers\N9SGG.

Our weekly nets are held on Sunday evening at 8:00 PM local time, on the 146.655 MHz EC Resources, LTD. repeater. The net is for training and information exchange relating to ARES\RACES matters.

Our ARES Skywarn nets are held on the 146.655 MHz repeater, with the backup system of 145.150 MHz Red Cross repeater. We activate our severe weather nets when asked to do so by the National Weather Service office in Green Bay, Wisconsin
