logo
 In January of 2004, Penobscot REACT held its organizational meeting.  Since then we have carried out training and 
public service not only within the Team, but in conjunction with Penobscot County ARES (Amateur Radio Emergency Service) and the 
Red Cross.  We regularly work the MS walk,Memorial Day, Fourth of July and Veteran's Day parades, the National Simulated Emergency 
Test (SET) and other emergency preparedness exercises, do ICS training, supports NHEST-Maine Audubon nature programs for the blind, 
and more.  Most recently (December, 2006) we participated with
local hospitals and ARES in a simulated earthquake disaster.  For further information
 contact Jim Koritzky, president, at 42 Sunbury; Bangor, Maine 04401 or 207-942-8067.


In 2005, Secretary/Treasurer Don Tarbet was appointed editor of the REACTer.  Check recent
