[NLRS] REMINDER *** Aurora'24 Conference June 1, 2024 ***

[Janice Hoettels]

Hello NLRS Land!

Just a friendly reminder that the Aurora'24 Conference is just around 
the corner and Registration is now open!

When: Saturday, June 1, 2024, 0900-1700 CDT
Where: West Medicine Lake Community Club, 1705 Forestview Lane North, 
Plymouth, MN 55441

In the morning hours, the club runs an outdoor antenna range from 0900 
to 1130 (weather permitting). The morning also allows for socializing, 
show and tell, and casual demonstrations.

For lunch, it's the return of the on-site Pizza Party Lunch! This was so 
much fun last year that we’ve decided to do it again this year! Keep all 
the morning conversations going with your fellow NLRSers by joining us 
for an on-site, super tasty pizza lunch. For $10, you will get 2 large 
deep dish pieces of Jet’s pizza, a large cookie for dessert, and a 20 oz 
bottle of pop/soda or water. It’s optional, of course, but by joining in 
the fun, you won’t have to rush off-site to lunch at a local restaurant 
and then race back to make the first talks of the conference. If you 
want the pizza lunch, you must send payment with your registration form, 
and your registration form and payment must be received by May 30, 2024 
in order for us to order enough food. Sorry, but no walk-up pizza orders 
the day of the conference!

The technical programs start at 1300 and typically run until 1700 or 
1730. We have some great talks this year! Take a look!....
