Subject: HamFest Reminder and Change

This message serves both as a reminder of our Spring Hamfest on Saturday
Morning and as an announcement of a last-minute change.

The RST Spring Hamfest will start at 7:00AM this Saturday, March 27.  
Vendor setup is at 6:00AM.  VE Testing is scheduled for 9:00AM.  Vendor
spaces are $5 each and this year's test session fee is $15.  RST will be
selling coffee and doughnuts, as usual.

Now, for the last-minute change:  We have been caught in a bureaucratic
SNAFU at the venue.  Due to a scheduling error, 3,500 to 4,000 attendees of
the NAMI Walk fundraiser will be parking in the lot where we usually hold
the hamfest.  The folks that run Kino Sports Complex have offered to move us
to the Tucson Electric Park parking lot across Ajo Way.  
They will be providing access to a meeting room in the ball park for testing
and will be unlocking the restrooms for our use.

Signs will be posted at the original location starting Friday afternoon to
redirect vendors and visitors to the new location.  Also, a map has been
posted to http://www.tucsonhamfest.org/

I apologize for the short notice of this change and look forward to seeing
all of you on Saturday.

Matthew Grossman, President
Radio Society of Tucson
