The Vancouver Emergency Community Telecommunications Organization (VECTOR), which provides back up communications for the City of Vancouver during emergencies and disasters, invites the public to see what their organization is about June 22. Field Day, an annual international Amateur Radio event that has participants attempting to make contact with as many operators as possible in a 24 hour period, gives VECTOR the opportunity to practice establishing a temporary communications facility in order to better serve the needs of emergency management in Vancouver. It starts at 11 a.m. at the south side of Q.E. Park by the Pitch & Putt Golf Course.
