Silent Key

AA7YCLes Wright2024Carole WrightKB7VWA

We will have a silent key ceremony, and time for comments at our meeting next week.


I would like to thank everyone who who made there way to Thomas Summit.

It was beautiful up there. Amazingly the weather was perfect. 15 people made it up.
The feedback I have gotten has been really positive. I believe that each and everyone of you who made it up there over the 3 day event, contributed in meaningful ways to it’s success.
Many of you will be acknowledged at next weeks meeting. One person however is really responsible not only for the idea of ham camp and it’s planning. But also played a primary role organizing, communicating, providing food and cooking it like a master chef. As well as live streaming video and tacking photos at the event. Marcos, this happened and was a success, because of you. I personally would have never done this myself, but with the planning you put in and the support of you and this club I really have a Great Time!
I thank you, and this club thanks you too.

Many of you contributed pictures and some video. I had my drone in the air. A short movie will be presented at next weeks monthly meeting.

Because you are special to our family we would like to invite you to breakfast,
next Saturday. Additionally, we are making a little gift for you as well.

Breakfast will be 9AM & J&M restaurant. Your gift may be ready by then but if not we’ll get it to you shortly thereafter. Breakfast and your LDARC Mothers Day Gift is paid for by member donations.
