[Alexandria Radio Club Reflector] TONS OF TRUCKS

[Ed MacDonald]

Hey Sean,

I’m going to try to make this, but don’t count me in your tally — b/c I won’t be able to get there until noon at the earliest. Northern VA Linux Users Group meets at 10 am Saturday, and I plan on attending that first :-)

73,
Ed KQ4YGT

Tons of Trucks puts examples of every piece of large / heavy equipment used by the City on display at Chinquapin Park from 10-2 on Saturday.  In response to the City's request, we will bring the Club trailer to the event and stage with the OEM team as they have carved out parking space for us.  Not sure what OEM is bringing for bling or other but perhaps we can bring the drinks (eg; gatorade).  Hope to find out more and get a parking map by tomorrow.
