[K3VOA] Youth on the Air Region 2 Camp 2020

[Ken Claerbout]

The IARU Region 2 (US & Americas) Youth Camp will be held at the VOA Museum in Ohio next June.  https://yotaregion2.org/cincinnati-2020/  This is great news!

IARU Region 1 (Europe & Africa) have been holding youth ham radio camps for about 5 years, and they have been highly successful.  Each year 80 - 100 youth from Region 1 gather for a week of radio related activities.  This year they met in Bulgaria (https://www.ham-yota.com/category/yota-2019/ ), the year before in South Africa ( https://www.ham-yota.com/category/yota-2018/) .  I belong to a chat group used by the youth in region 2, these kids are having a blast with ham radio.  It's an encouraging thing to see.
