I hope you enjoyed operating during the June ARRL Field Day event.\u00a0 Our local club members had a great time of operating, fellowship, and food.\u00a0 We even had a Friday night potluck dinner to congratulate everyone who had spent time that day setting up and to share a wonderful meal together.\u00a0 After all, isn\u2019t community one of the most important aspects of amateur radio?<\/em><\/p>\n

Take a look through this month\u2019s events information.\u00a0 I\u2019m sure there will be some events that catch your eye.<\/em><\/p>\n

Until next month\u2026.<\/em><\/p>\n
