All are invited to attend this open house. This event had to be postponed back a week later, but this is now a firm schedule.
WARC (WA1NPO) is quite a vibrant Club with lots of things going on. Many, many Nets per week. They’re a bit smaller than CMARA, but very active in the Community.

After seeing Gil’s fantastic presentation on Ham Radio’s IMPORTANT role at the Boston Marathon here’s the link all of you who would like to participate, below is the link which guides you through the process for signing up for the Boston Marathon.
Feedback from the membership told us that although Aldrich Observatory field is excellent for our Field Day, there’s a desire for a location which is more centralized to our membership population and is easier to get to. Additionally, there’s a desire to set up in a public location and invite the general public, elected officials and the like to come visit our event and learn about our club and amateur radio in general.
As such, we’ve reserved Trout Brook Recreation Area for our event. The area is at 320 Manning Street in Holden. The recreation area has many open fields and lots of trees perfect for hanging wire antennae. Reserved by permit that weekend for our use is a gathering area around the pond which includes a picnic pavilion with tables and a lodge. The lodge include 2 full service bathrooms, a fireplace, refrigerator, electric griddle, steamer, microwave, 6 cafeteria tables and one serving table.
In the upcoming months, various board members and other interested in helping coordinate Field Day will visit the area and come up with a site plan for the event. At present, those that are familiar with Trout Brook tell us that it should work out extremely well for our event.
More to come on this and other Field Day information in the upcoming months.
