DARA General Membership Meeting FRIDAY FEB 4th 

 

This is your reminder for the DARA Membership meeting this coming Friday February 4, 2022, at 7:00pm, at the Greene County Expo Center in the Mercantile Building. We will have both in-person and Zoom access to the meeting. Zoom information will be at the end of this article. Please follow all current CDC guidelines and please do not attend in-person if you are experiencing any Covid symptoms.
We have an exciting speaking duo for our presentation this month. I am honored that they accepted my invitation to enlighten us with the February presentation. They have been friends of DARA and Hamvention for many years, and we are most appreciative for their sharing some of their time and information with us.  Frank Bauer KA3HDO and Rosalie White K1STO will be speaking on “ARISS: Current Status and Vision for the Future”.
  
Hope to see everyone attend this informative meeting and learn more about ARISS and it’s future.
