The Annual WARC Field Day will be held this year at the Town Square in Headland. We'd like to invite everyone to come out, join us, and get on the air. We'll be operating 24 hours again this year and will have 2 stations set up to operate from.

Look forward to seeing everyone there!

On the weekend of May 7th - May 9th, Amateurs from around the area are getting together for a camping trip at FDR Campground in Pine Mountain Georgia. We'll be setting up a couple stations to operate for fun as well as hiking up the mountain for a little QRP. If you'd like to participate we'd love to have you along. If you're not interested in operating but just want to come along for a relaxing weekend of camping thats great too! Just drop me a line at MYCALL at ARRL.NET and we'll add you to the roster.

Everyone is welcome!
