All,

Speaking of Field Day, a visit was made to the trailer yesterday by 
George, AC2NX, Len, K3SLJ and myself to clean up and sort out the "rats 
nest" (turns out to be squirrels nest) :). We made pretty good progress 
with weed whacking, carcass clearing and general clean up of the 
interior of the trailer. We still have work to do, i.e. potentially 
additional shelving, new rear door, but we identified most of the gear 
earmarked for Field Day. Some of the items we took home for a thorough 
cleaning.  We were not able to find any banners, only some signs to be 
used in the tents. Understand there was some question about banners 
recently for the March of Dimes event. So are there banners that exist, 
possibly in someone's basement? If not, I'd be happy to donate one to 
the cause.
