We are now set up with JSE Custom Embroidery & DTG Printing for club apparel!!
Visit http://www.jse-repair.com to check out what is set up so far.
If you don't see something you want, you can always email Jeff and discuss it. He has been VERY helpful and responsive.

Thank you Jon Oldenburg, AB9AH, for getting this started.

FCARC will again be providing communications for this fund raiser for St. Joe's Food Pantry. This event lasts a few hours in the morning and will take place starting at St Joe's, which is a block away from our meeting location on Midway Rd. We will need participants (with HTs) at various points along the route along with a net control operator. I will have more info in the next few weeks, but should you have any questions or interested in participating, please email me at kg9jp@yahoo.com and I will start putting a list together.

Our 443.650MHz repeater is back up on Oneida Heights and is back on the air.

The Downtown receive for 146.76 is also active.

Thanks to Rick and Mike for helping get our repeater on the air!

Location: Pavilion #1, Sunset Park, Kimberly. Starts at 11am. FAMILY FRIENDLY EVENT!
Please bring a dish to pass.

The club will provide Brats, burgers, hot dogs, corn and soda pop and water.
We typically do a fox hunt so... bring your fox hunting gear.
If you want to show off some gear, bring it out and get on the air.

It's that time of year again when us cyclists try to make it around Lake Winnebago as quickly as we can.

The repeater committee has been asked if the 146.76 repeater can be used to provide coverage.

Please keep the repeater clear during the event; consider using the 145.330 repeater instead if possible.

Thanks!
Andy, AJ9L
