COMMUNICATE DURING NATURAL DISASTERS OR OTHER EMERGENCIES.  SCOUTS OFTEN

TO COMMUNICATE, DONT THEY?  YOU MIGHT EXPLAIN HOW THEY CAN SET UP
COMMUNICATIONS WITH ANOTHER CAMP 10 MILES OR 1000 MILES AWAY WITH SIMILAR
EASE.  PREPAREDNESS IS YOUR KEY WORD HERE.  WHEN ADDRESSING CIVIC OR
GOVERNMENT LEADERS, SHOW HOW AMATEUR RADIO PROVIDES A PUBLIC SERVICE TO THE
COMMUNITY AND SCHOOLS AT NO EXPENSE TO THE TAXPAYERS.  WHAT COULD BE MORE
ATTRACTIVE TO POLITICIANS THAN THAT?  EXPLAIN THE BENEFITS OF HAVING A
SKYWARN OR ARES PROGRAM IN THE CITY.  ALSO, HELP THEM UNDERSTAND THAT WE
DONT JUST TALK ON OUR RADIOS.  HAMS OFTEN WORK AT EMERGENCY SHELTERS
