Gentlemen,
 
I wanted to send you this overdue thank you note to express my appreciation for your tremendous support the Sturdy Memorial Amateur Radio Club provided the 7 Rivers District Fall Camporee last weekend.  Our effort to introduce the boys to Amateur Radio and allow their participation in Jamboree on the Air was a great success and would not have been possible without your help.  I’m sure we’ll have several boys complete their radio merit badges as the result of the opportunity you provided them.  I also got a lot of feedback from the boys and it’s clear that they tremendously enjoyed the chance to talk to other scouts on the radio.  
 
My wife, Jacqueline, spent quite a lot of time taking photos of the event and has posted them in a Picasa web album.  The link for these photos is given below.  You will see the prominent role you played in the event.  Jacqueline is also submitting stories about the event to the local newspapers and the ARRL so if/when some good press appears we will let you know about it.  
 
Again, thank you for your help.
 
Yours in Scouting and 73,
 
Leon
Assistant Scout Master, Troop 131, Wrentham, MA
