4-H Fair

And once again, we will be supporting the annual 4H Fair that will run from 07/20-07/24. We’ll be set up in the air conditioned outreach tent. There you can sign-up to talk to families about preparedness, emergency communications, weather spotting, and amateur radio in public service. In order to sit in the air conditioning, there will be one tent this year. Set up will be on July 18th and teardown is on the 25th. Lunch will be provided. You can sign up on the SignUpGenius to lock in your best time.
