[SMCARA] Tailgate Fest

[Ken McNeely]

Don't forget that the ARRL is touting us in the QST magazine as well.  That's where my TN contact came from.

Hard to tell.

I am receiving reports that our Tailgate Fest is being advertised on the
eastern shore during the SCARE net.

Grant and I have been advertising on all of the nets on the 35 and 64
machines,

We just mailed out letters to each of the 276 licensed amateur radio
operators in St. Mary's County.

Ken just got a call Sunday from a vendor in TN who would like a table.

We should be on the radio calendar for 98.3 and 102.9 as I submitted those
several months ago.

Lastly Tom Clarke is working on the bill board ad for the display at the
firehouse.

The word is out!

Amateur Radio has something for everyone. Even if it is just peace of mind
that no matter what happens your message will get through.
