BIG NEWS!! ( Reported by David Patton)
The Owensboro Amateur Radio Club has a new meeting location!
Starting in July, OARC will meet at the Owensboro Technical and Community College (OTCC) Downtown Campus at 1501 Frederica Street. While the club will continue to use the Red Cross building for VE testing and other events, we have outgrown the Red Cross meeting room, and needed a bigger space. The OTCC classrooms provide plenty of room for activities, plus excellent Audio/Video capabilities and internet access!
Please help get the word out that our July 18th meeting will be at the OTCC downtown campus, in rooms 18A & B. The club meeting will start at the normal time, 7PM, with the ARES meeting at 6:30pm. Best parking is in the back of the OTCC building, accessable from West 15th Steet or Daviess Street (across from Steinkamp lumber yard).
At the July meeting, we’ll have a Field Day wrap-up, then a tailgate swapfest in the parking lot. Dust off your old gear to sell, raid the piggybank for some folding money, and come out for a fun evening! You do not have to be a club member to come to meetings, or to sell/buy gear at the July swapfest!
Finally, a shout-out and huge thank you to Charles Hughes, AA4CH, for making all the arrangements for the club to meet at OTCC.
Our new meeting site is shown below!
