ARES Vs RACES & EmComm Dakota County Emergency Communications is EmComm. Members are one group without any formal commitment to ARES or RACES. We provide service to Public Safety and the general public. ARES is activated before, during and after an emergency. Generally, ARES handles all emergency messages, including those between government emergency management officials. Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service (RACES), on the other hand, almost never starts before an emergency and is active only during the emergency and during the immediate aftermath if government emergency management offices need communications support. RACES is normally shut down shortly after the emergency has cleared. Licensed Amateur Radio Volunteers across Dakota County serve in times of need to supplement Emergency Communications for Law Enforcement, Emergency Management, and for the public good(Source: ARRL.org)
