[SMCARA] Multi-Faith Day to Serve - Serenity Farms, Benedict, MD - September 19 - 7am

Tue Sep 8 16:24:13 EDT 2015

At one stage of the game, the club had a pop-up.  Let me check to see if it is at the base station.  If not I may be able to borrow one from my church.

My portable two meter antenna and 15 foot mast is available.

Unfortunately on the 19th I will be on my way to Fort Worth.
