Hello All,
Following on from the (not long) concluded July meeting, here are some coming events to keep in mind that were discussed:
- The RD Contest and the ILLW often fall on the same weekend, and as such have been a combined event at the Tacking Point Lighthouse for the last couple of years. This year is different:
- The Remembrance Day Contest falls on the weekend of August 13th and 14th. It was decided to hold the event at Larry VK2CLL’s QTH at Huntingdon.
- The International Lighthouse and Lightship Event falls on the weekend of August 20th and 21st. The club caravan will be at its usual location alongside the Tacking Point Lighthouse.
Additional information regarding these events will be detailed at August’s Monthly Meeting on August the 6th, so for the moment save these dates, attend the August meeting (which is also the AGM), and keep an eye on the events pages for both these events (linked above).
- Also discussed at today’s meeting were the October based events:
- Jamboree on the Air (JOTA) – October 14-16th, ORARC to participate, details to come.
- Beechwood Billycart Classic – October 23rd, volunteers are requested. 13+ required, 10 confirmed, please see Richard VK2CHC if you’re available for this fun event.
As above, save the dates, attend the August meeting and check the event pages for additional info!
