Good afternoon Sturdy Radio club members and Friends of W1SMH!For those of you who may not be aware,  it's that time again in North Attleboro, for the annual North Attleboro firefighters Kids Day Festival . It will be held from July 19 through 22 at the North Attleboro Middle/High School, Complex, 564 Landry Avenue, North Attleboro Massachusetts.

And as you probably already know , it's also the Sturdy Memorial Hospital Radio Clubs 40th anniversary!
 It's hard to believe the Blizzard of 78 was over 40 years ago and that the club was  organized that long ago as well! 

● We are going to have a Club sponsored information / demo table with HF, VHF, DMR, SDR  (and other  modes /information that  anyone might like to suggest..) set up at NAFF Kids Day,  to advertise our club, it's good work, and try to generate / spawn interests in kids (and parents too!) for our hobby .
I'm planning on having a pop up tent, the club sign , a table, chairs , radios, batteries, computers, and at least two or three different portable expedient antennas..
I've had some interest from the membership already but figured I would remind you all in case you wish participate and provide a small or large block of your time to staff the station, keeping the scheduling as informal as we can.
I won't be able to staff the station for the most part but l will be able to set up and take down equipment, and provide verbal support to other staffers, as I am committed to other functions during this event.
● I would like to have staff at the table on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday afternoon from about 1 to 4 p.m. and based on response, possibly extend the time or cut it back.
This will be good trial run in preparation for the August farmers market in Attleboro, and hopefully a future open house /amateur radio demo/ special event station activities we are planning in the fall.
Any and all assistance is appreciated. But I don't wish to take staffing away from other activities at the event (by radio club members / CERT team members , ) so I will ask that you keep this in mind if you wish to help out with the information table.
● You can respond to me directly by email , up until, and even after the event starts , if you can help out. I am grateful for any assistance you might be able to provide for this effort.
Thank you for your consideration. And thank you in advance for your support and expertise!
Sincerely and Best 73's,
N1EZT, Pierre..SMHARC Member since 1986...
