Subject: National Amateur Radio Alliance Club Week

I had a chance to talk to the leadership of the National Amateur Radio
Alliance at the Midwest Division Convention in Sedalia, MO, this past
weekend. It's a start-up organization. They asked that I let ARRL
members know about their Club Week. It will run from November 1 to
November 8. Here's the description from their website:

"Club Week is a multipurpose, week-long event. While the primary goal is
to contact other clubs and exchange QSL cards, this uniquely designed
on-the-air event serves many additional purposes.

Provides opportunities to set up in public spaces and engage with
the community.
Promotes activity across all ham bands.
Encourages conversations between operators.
Helps new hams overcome mic fright and gain confidence.
Is a great event to introduce newly licensed hams and technicians to
the exciting world of HF.

Unlike a contest, Club Week does not involve earning points or
submitting logs to NARA. Instead, it is a relaxed and engaging event
where clubs can operate from a club shack, a member's home, a park, or
any public location. Clubs are encouraged to organize additional
activities to make the most of this opportunity. Participants should be
prepared to send and respond to QSL cards, which provides additional
opportunities to engage and teach new hams."
