Pre-Meeting Free Fest (no free fest in Novemeber) Part of being a Ham is sharing our "Goodies" with other Hams. Over the years we have all collected items we think we "need" to make our Ham Shack complete. Guidelines so members know what the expectations are for bringing in items. • All items are free. No conditions. • No guarantees, as is, you get what you get. • All items must fit in a tote. • Limit one tote per member. • All totes must have the owner’s name/call sign on it. • Larger items, can just have a flyer on the table with contact info to arrange for pickup? Any leftover items must be taken by the original owners.
Information from Past Meetings Slides and other information is shared for club and personal use. Any other uses must receive permission from the speakers.
