This is probably the last reminder for 2014. We're down to a few
hamfests in September and October, then it will be spring before we
see much activity.

Gas and travel is expensive these days. Get on the air and talk it up
that you are going to a hamfest and try to get a group to ride along
and share the gas expense. You'll save money on gas and avoid that
long, lonely ride in the car!

Here is the updated list of hamfests in or near Minnesota in the
coming months. I've put in minimum data but given you a web link to
search for more info. The hamfests on the bottom of the list have not
been officially scheduled since their last date and will be updated as
they draw near.

73, Doug Reed, N0NAS.
