[K3CAL] FIELD DAY 2019

Mon May 6 07:38:00 EDT 2019

75 a day seems like a good deal. (Especially if the a/c works), and the place is clean.

As you remember from a couple years ago, this site has lots of room and has a beach, pier, and boat landing areas for recreation besides radio ops.  There are enough tall trees to get long wires up in the air and ground space for hexbeams and such.  The clubhouse itself has air conditioning, bathrooms, and a kitchen area with refrigerator and range.

As we discussed at our May CARA meeting last night there are several essential roles that need filling.  Please consider and volunteer for these roles to make Field Day a fun and successful weekend.   These positions just require a little time to coordinate with folks who are planning to come to see what they are bringing and then figure out placing the resources.  Not a major effort on anyone's part.
