About
History – The club came together organically over a period of years. Annually we would get together and operate for Winter Field Day. As our WFD crew got larger, we started discussing other activations and more people became interested in joining us, so we formed the Missouri Outdoor Club in December of 2020 as a way to involve more people in our shared interests.
With a couple of WFD events under our belt, a SOTA activation, several POTA activations we continue to seek out ways to activate radios within nature. The club has grown from the initial 3 members to over a dozen.
Events – Winter Field Day/Last Weekend in January, Parks on the Air (POTA), Summits on the Air (57 official summits in MO), Fred Fish Memorial Award

About the National ARES/RACES Organizations
Emergency service is one of the basics of the Amateur Radio Service. and there ARES is the ARRL arm of emergency services and RACES is the federal government arm.
ARES is activated before, during and after an emergency. Generally, ARES handles all emergency messages, including those between government emergency management officials.
RACES, on the other hand, almost never starts before an emergency and is active only during the emergency and during the immediate aftermath if government emergency management offices need communications support. RACES is normally shut down shortly after the emergency has cleared.
