As we all know, ARRL Field Day is fast approaching, and we will be participating this year as usual. This year, we have changed venues. We will be set up at Camp Agawam in Orion Twp., MI and operating on the air between 2 PM EDT on Saturday, June 24 and 2 PM EDT on Sunday, June 25. As is tradition for Field Day, food will be provided by Bill N8QVS.

If you would like to volunteer for setup, please be at the park no later than 9 AM EDT on Saturday 6/24. We will have plenty for you to do. Thanks, and we hope to see you there!

The next meeting of the Hazel Park Amateur Radio Club will be held on Wednesday, April 12 at 7:30 PM ET at the Hazel Park Memorial Library. Socializing starts around 7:00 PM. Our February meeting will include a presentation by Bob Heil, K9EID, about audio mixers. If the name sounds familiar, that’s because Bob is a well-known sound engineer, and the founder of Heil Sound (which designed sound systems for several famous musicians).

Lastly, just a word about club officer nominations – if you haven’t sent yours in yet, please do so to hparcelections at gmail dot com!

It’s that time of year again! We have begun to seek nominations for club officers. Members should have received an email from hparcelections at gmail dot com with instructions on how to nominate members for office, as well as the guidelines for nomination.

Just an FYI – we’ve relaxed the membership requirements for some of the offices. You can now nominate members with only 6 months of membership behind them for the positions of Secretary, Parliamentarian, and Director. The board approved this plan so that we can get some more participation from our newer members who might have some good ideas for our club.

If you did not receive the email, please check your spam filter, or send an email to hparcelections at gmail dot com. We look forward to hearing from the membership – remember, whoever you nominate will potentially be leading your club for the next year!

The next meeting of the Hazel Park Amateur Radio Club will be held Wednesday, February 8 at 7:30 PM at the Hazel Park Library and on Zoom. Socializing starts around 7:00 PM. Our February meeting will include a presentation by Paul Reinhardt, KC8BDK, about the Central Michigan Emergency Network.
