A new member joined ICARC with a generous donation to the repeater fund. Thank you Rolla, KB9JJJ.
A local church is having a booth at the fair with the theme of Disaster Preparedness for Families. Justin mentioned that ham radio, skywarn, FRS radios might be incorporated into this display—even to the point of having a two-meter radio operating from the display! Maybe a chance to hand out some info about ham radio. Sounds like a lot of work but might be fun for some.
Discussion followed on our school demo and all agreed that it was a success. Sam mentioned a Indiana ham had made the trip to see the Kankakee hamfest and checked into our Monday night net. He had remembered Kyle’s letter from last year.
Justin provided us with some nice snacks and Sam dismissed us about 9:15 pm.
