When all else fails, Amateur Radio works!
The July ARES meeting will be held at 9am on July 13th (2nd Saturday). This month’s meeting will be at the Benton County Health Department, 1238 Commercial Street in Warsaw.
Hope to see everyone there! You don’t need to be a participant in ARES to attend.
We could not have asked for a nicer day for our annual ARES picnic at KDØCNC’s place today. Sunny skies, cool temperatures and great company! It was good flying weather for the RC gliders, too.
The food was plentiful and tasty, and I ate more than my share! Almost everyone ended up with some kind of giveaway, and the two rigs were raffled off to well-deserving new hams.
Rick KDØCNC and Sally KDØCND deserve lots of thanks for all the work they did to make the picnic a success. Thanks also to the following contributors:
Newman’s Country Mart
Orschelin Farm and Home
Essers
Lucas Oil Speedway
Cable Xperts
MFJ Enterprises
Associated Radio
WBØW
Wade’s Plumbing
Comet Antennas
and everyone who showed up and had a great time!

Rick KDØCNC has obtained lots of door prizes and give-aways, and we’ll be selling raffle tickets for a Yaesu FT-1900 mobile rig and a Wouxun HT. Everyone usually ends up with some kind of goodie!
Contributors include:
The food, fun and fellowship are always a blast. It’s a great chance to meet the people we hear on the radio.
Rick has promised great weather, as usual. He will be grilling burgers and hotdogs. Bring a side dish or salad if you can. A chair would be a good idea, too.
Our new website is up and running! We’ll be adding more content in the next few days.
We were unable to transfer anything from the old site, so if you had created a logon, you will need to sign up again.
