What Happened At The BARC Hamfest 2005?

The Baltimore Amateur Radio Club (BARC) main source of income is the Greater Baltimore Hamboree And Computerfest.   This hamfest is also the host to the ARRL Maryland State Convention.   It is a BIG event,   covering two full days and filling the Maryland State Fairgrounds.   Even a club the size of BARC cannot muster the manpower to run this hamfest.   So they contract out part of the work.   This is where we come in.   We run one of the gates for them.   We have done this for several years.   We know how to do the job well and with essentially no supervision.   BARC likes our work and pays us well.

The BARC Hamfest is over.   Our Treasury is replenished.   And pleasantly so,   I might add.   All of which is the result of the members that gave their entire weekend to make this happen.   THANK YOU to:
