ARES Leadership & Units

The Oregon Section ARES team consists of 6 Districts and 22 active ARES counties/units.  The Oregon ARES leadership will not be operating in a strict hierarchical structure.  All levels of leadership will have a voice.  The new SEC will be working with the DEC’s to define their specific role.

AuxComm and ARES Units and their Emergency Coordinators

Below you will find a number of ARES sites across Oregon.  Each site represents the efforts of a group of dedicated Amateur Radio operators to assist their local area in emergency communications efforts.

If you have an AUXCOMM, ACES, RACES, ACS, or group by another name, that does not wish to be part of the ARES program, but would like the coordinator of your county group to be listed here, please provide the name of the county group and the name and call sign of the coordinator to Bonnie Altus, AB7ZQ eMail and you will be added.
