Field Day 2020 is just 12 Days Out!

Hi folks,
First and foremost, the Club Field Day web page can be found here: 
 
Field Day 2020 is 12 days out and it's time to start thinking about club participation.  We will be setting up at the Roth Family Woodlot in Tedrow / Wauseon again this year, and since we usually only run the 24 hour period, we can begin setup after 8:00pm on Thursday, June 25, although most of us will probably string antennas on June 26 after 5:00pm.  Remember the event starts on Saturday, June 27 at 2:00pm.

Club Meetings to Resume June 15, 2020

We have been given the green light from the county commissioner to resume club meetings at the Administration Building as of June 15.  Given the nature of the current COVID-19 pandemic still in progress, we are requiring facemasks for the meeting.  Meeting time will be 7:30pm.

Hamfest this Saturday

As a reminder, the Hamfest is this Saturday. The committee has been meeting and planning the layout of the event to be compliant with the Ohio Department of Health guidelines on outdoor sales events. That being said, PPE/facemasks will be required. The committee has acquired a hundred masks for anyone who does not have their own, but please bring your facemask with you if you have one.
