Welcome to the Jackson County Georgia Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES) Web Site. The Web Site is a work in progress as we seek to provide Jackson ARES with information needed to improve ARES® services to Supported Agencies within Jackson County. All licensed Amateur Radio operators are eligible to join ARES®, so please consider giving back to the community.
