FYI.  As always, we need a dozen or so hams to help make our tenth year of
this a reality. Please send an email to k2gw at arrl.net if you can help this
year.  I’d appreciate hearing from you  by November 28 (Thanksgiving) so I
can then start assigning  folks to the classes.

No experience is necessary as the classes are in PowerPoint and we always
team up new instructors with veterans.   We all have as much fun as the
kids and we’ve gotten a lot of new hams for the area over the years.
