[SFDXA] Fwd: [EXTERNAL] Radio Club Meeting Place

[Randy Shirley]

Great news everyone!

SFDXA has been approved to again have our meetings at the Florida 
Medical Center!

I want to thank Doreen Jamison for her efforts to make this happen!

I have had a few members that were much more interested in the Broward 
College facility, since it is a bit easier to get to from the north.  
There is no reason we cannot move in that direction in the future if a 
majority of the membership wants it.  There are other hurdles to 
overcome in order the meet at that facility, if that is something the 
membership wants to move forward on.

This, however, is a huge step and I think many more members will be 
attending!

I also want to thank Fred Perkins WB4BAG for his hospitality and 
allowing us to meet at his facility while we were in limbo.

Very 73,
Randy N4QV
President South Florida DX Association

Hi Doreen,

It was a pleasure to speak with you the other day.

As you are aware, the South Florida DX Association, a non-profit amateur 
radio club, has been meeting in the FMC auditorium for many years prior 
to Covid-19.  When Covid came around, meetings were discouraged and the 
Hospital was closed to our meetings for safety reasons.

I understand that Dr. Edward Dauer was one of the founders of FMC and 
served as Director of Radiology for many years.  He is a member of our 
club and he was instrumental in arranging for the club to meet at FMC 
for many years.

Since Covid-19, the club has been meeting in restaurants and other 
facilities that were not nearly as centrally located as FMC.  Many 
members are discouraged from coming to the meetings since they were 
being held in geographically inconvenient locations.

This is a formal request to again meet in the FMC auditorium.

Our meetings are on the 1st Wednesday of every other month from 7:00PM 
to 9:00PM
Our remaining meeting dates for 2024 are:
     March 6, 2024
     May 1, 2024
     July 3, 2024
     September 4, 2024
     November 6, 2024

We have an average of 20 members that attend the meetings.  The club 
brings our own A/V equipment and anything else needed for the meetings.  
Of course, as we have always done in the past, the club leaves the 
auditorium exactly as we found it.  We are very strict about that!

In the past, we were honored to meet at such a fine facility, that was 
very convenient for our membership, and we very much appreciated the 
generosity of Florida Medical Center.

Please forward this request to the board for review.

Thanks in advance for your consideration.

Very best regards,
Randy Shirley N4QV
President of South Florida DX Association
