The Sierra Foothills Amateur Radio Club remembers 9/11/2001.
May we never forget that defining September day.
Saturday, October 7: At the Rocklin Maker Faire, the American Radio Relay League #ARRL, the National Association for Amateur Radio, will host an exhibit on the wonders of amateur radio.
Participating ARRL Section clubs like SFARC will display amateur radio equipment, antennas, and DIY projects, Morse Code practice stations, and offer hands-on experiences for attendees to experience the creativity and thrill of amateur radio wireless technology and analog and digital communication at our on-site Special Event Station N6M.
It’s a great opportunity to show what’s great about this hobby.

Thank you KK7AIR, Scott for once again inviting us to the Georgetown Airport Campground for another Field Day fly-in event! Thank you for hosting us!
The airport has a very nice shaded private campground, which is accessed by a side road on the West side of the runway. There is running potable water, two restrooms with sinks, and a cold shower. The site has a good amount of shade and picnic tables, but you might consider bringing a pop-up or canopy along with comfortable lawn chairs for socializing, relaxing, and eating. The camping area is perfect for tents and small RVs. 5th wheel, larger bumper pull trailers along with class A coaches will park across the runway near the hangars. There are no hook-ups or dump stations.
