• HamFest 2026 Approaches!

  The focus of our March meeting will be the upcoming HamFest 2026, to be held March 28th at the Historic Loomis Train Station in Loomis, California.  Event chair Frank KG9M will cover the high level event logistics, and introduce the team of folks leading the various functions that make the event happen.  They will review what’s going on in their area, talk about why their particular area is the most exciting way to participate, and list ways you can contribute.  A brief Q&A will be held after the presentations to answer any questions you may have.

  Celebrating it’s 10 year anniversary, the Loomis HamFest is the region’s first of the year, and an event of this magnitude takes the talents and simple participation of many to pull it off.  Check out the link on the website’s Events page to register for where you can help.  https://www.w6ek.org/support?contact=hamfest

  Besides the day-of participation in the event, we’re also looking for folks to help off-load the large inventory of donated equipment on Friday at 5pm.  It’s a great way to help, and you get a first look (and a great deal) at the goodies!  Sign up as above.
