[KCDXC] KCDXC-FD-2012

I have heard many Field Day horror stories that go something like this:

The club membership wants to have a club Field Day, however only 2 or 3 
people do 90% of all the work.  This includes the months of planning, preparing 
the equipment, setting-up the antennas, operating, tear-down, and then putting 
everything away until the next year.  Oh, the majority of the club membership 
usually shows up at some predetermined time on Saturday for a dinner and then 
the majority of the membership disappears leaving the 2 or 3 guys to do all the 
operating and tear-down.  This usually goes on for several years, where less and 
less people help the 2 or 3 people, until the 2 or 3 people finally look at each 
other on some Sunday afternoon and then say "The Heck with this!".

For those that want to have a Field Day, demonstrate your enthusiasm by joining 
us at Raytown this weekend.  We always need people to help setup, operate, and 
tear-down.

See you there,

Dave KGØUS

I say that's maybe something we should shoot for next year, and yes Rob your 
place would be good. I'm in.

Hi Rob and Judy,
 
You betcha!
 
I'm already committed to SFTARC-FD this year, but I would 
definitely be interested in a KCDXC-FD in 2012.
