Patrick Moore, K2CPR to Present on Field Day Preparations at GARA’s May Meeting

We had a great meeting with Barry Baines, WD4ASW at our last general meeting in April. His presentation was excellent and inspiring, and it was an honor to have him at our meeting. Visit www.w4gso.org to watch his presentation if you haven't already seen it. With Field Day quickly approaching, May's meeting will revolve around the club's preparations for the event.  Patrick Moore, K2CPR will present and let us know about Field Day plans, where there are still needs, and how you can become involved.  You won't want to miss the meeting or the event- both will be a great time of fellowship and camaraderie (and food!).  See you soon!
