The third annual Amateur Radio operating event, Get Your Park ON!, occurs October 10-18, 2020 in celebration of Earth Science Week. The event is open to Amateur Radio operators around the world and is sponsored by the U.S. affiliate of World Wide Flora and Fauna.
Since October 1998, the American Geosciences Institute has organized Earth Science Week, a national and international event to help the public gain a better understanding and appreciation of the Earth sciences and to encourage stewardship of the Earth, common goals shared by the Amateur Radio program World Wide Flora and Fauna. Both programs encourage their participants to get outside and enjoy nature. This years theme is "Earth Materials Around the World." Information on Earth Sciences Week is available at https://www.earthsciweek.org/
This year will include Get Your Park ON! Special Event Stations (GYPO SES). These stations will be active from KFF parks throughout the week operating with 1x1 callsigns, e.g., N5G. Hunters are encouraged to work as many of these Special Event Stations as possible, with special recognition given to those working ten or more.
A complete list of the Special Event Stations will be provided at the start of GYPO. Their operating plans and schedules will be posted on their individual QRZ pages.
