Herndon
Festival and Race
An Annual Event
Starting in 2008, the Sterling Park Amateur Radio Club participates
in the annual Herndon Festival and Race
held in Herndon , Virginia. Bud, W4KSN, initiated this activity and is
the coordinator of the SPARC activities supporting the Herndon Festival
and Race.
We set up an amateur radio station and operate on-the-air for the
duration of the Fest. In addition, we provide radio communications to
selected waypoints alont the 5K and 10K races. It is an excellent way
to meet new people at the
festival, make some contacts on the air, and interest passers-by in
amateur radio.
