Several amateur radio operators gathered at the Paoli Municipal Airport North of Paoli to participate in the American Radio Relay League's Field Day activity for 2025. The group had 19 people visit the communications activity including elected and emergency officials from Orange County as well as other visitors interested in amateur radio and emergency communications. Rick Hockett, OCARC member, as well as Orange County EMA director and OCARC member Rick Emerick along with Scoutmaster Keith Condra helped two local scouts complete their requirements for their Emergency Preparedness Merit Badges.
