The Pierce County Amateur Radio Communication Services (ARCS) strives to provide the most effective and efficient communication services possible to entities they serve. Their role is to support the material needs of the Amateur Radio Emergency Services (ARES) in Pierce County, Washington. In 2018, ARCS built 12 VHF/UHF go kits, which provide robust, local-area communications throughout the county.

This grant will be combined with funds from other sources to purchase the equipment needed to build several HF go-kits that will allow the club to communicate with the rest of the world in the event of an emergency.
