UC Parade
Date: 01 November 2014 – Important, they moved the parade up one week this year due to multiple large events around the area on the following weekend.
Title: Universal City Veterans Day Parade
Location: Univeral City, Texas
Description: For more years than we can count, HIll Country REACT and radio operators around the region have provided support for this Patriotic Event.
Ham Radio Operators provide a valuable service during this event by assisting the Universal City Police Department in shutting down the parade route (Pat Booker Rd.) in preparation of the parade.
We meet at the U.C.P.D. in the morning for a briefing and assignments (City Hall is located on Universal City Blvd). After that we proceed to our assigned stations and await the call to setup our barricades.
FREE DONUTS, COFFEE, ORANGE JUICE, and maybe even some milk, courtesy of UCPD.
During the parade, we try to make sure no vehicles enter the route that could disrupt the parade. Afterwards, we meet for lunch at a nearby Mexican Restaurant on Pat Booker Road and visit for a bit.
All licensed radio operators are invited to participate.
