MEETING LINK

ARRL World Amateur Radio Day is April 18, commemorating the founding of the International Amateur Radio Union (IARU) in 1925.

On World Amateur Radio Day, all radio amateurs are invited to take to the airwaves to enjoy our global friendship with other amateurs, and to show our skills and capabilities to the public. For more information, visit http://www.arrl.org/world-amateur-radio-day.

HAMS IN THE HILLS IS BACK WITH ANOTHER “SNOW ADVENTURE”

The objective is to explore the trails at McKinstry Peak and McKinstry Lake area. However, there is likely to be a fair amount of snow remaining in this area as well as on the roads leading to this area. In that case, we will be doing some snow wheeling and going where we can until the lead vehicle gets stuck.

Date: April 15th, 2023
Meetup: Mar Val’s Market  on 6049 Front Street in Georgetown,
Meetup Time: 0800 / Departing at 0900.
Plan on joining? RSVP by using the form at THIS LINK <- located at the bottom of the page.
