Easter egg hunt offered at Fairview Park

Enjoy the scenery at Fairview Park while the kids hunt for

environmentally friendly “eggs” on Saturday. The Fairview Friends

Committee will host guided tours of the park as well as an egg hunt

for children, ages 2 to 12, with prizes for the most eggs collected.

After the hunt, children can ride the Orange County Model

Engineers’ train.

The tour, led by Costa Mesa’s administrator of the Fairview Park

plan, Robert Staples, will begin at 10 a.m. at the south end of the

Placentia Avenue parking lot. For more information call (714)

754-5688 or visit https://www.cmfairviewpark.org.

When disaster strikes, radio operators pitch in

If you have a two-way radio, you can be a part of a new network of

residents that could help the city in a disaster.

Radio operators can participate in the Neighborhood Radio

Communication Network, which practices transmitting and receiving

messages every Sunday on FRS or FRG/GMRS band two-way radios and

two-meter amateur radios.

For instructions, amateur radio operators can check in on

frequency 146.580 at 7:25 p.m., and FRS operators should tune in on

FRS channel 4 at 7:30 p.m. on Sunday nights. A Spanish language net

is also being developed.

For more information, send an e-mail to [email protected] or

call Diane Hill at (714)546-4252.
