President's Message
What a great flea market! FARA flea markets are once again drawing the big crowds of buyers and sellers that we like to see. The flea market committee thanks all the FARA members who worked at the flea, and all our buyers and sellers. We're working to make the November flea even better.
Spring means volunteer events are coming up. Of course, the Marathon is this month, but there are also several walkathons, and Framingham's own Flag Day parade and road race. Lots of opportunities to get outside with your HT and have some fun with fellow hams, while providing communications for some great groups.
We are planning another FARA night out. See the announcement or call Jim for details.
Field Day is coming up sooner than you think! We need to know what the interest level is, so Field Day planning meetings will start this month, on Wednesday nights at the shack.
Thanks again to everyone for a great spring flea market!
Peter, KA1AXY
