The Fauquier Amateur Radio Association

FARA 2005 Meeting and Activity Schedule   FARANet on Wednesday Nights

An Association that is Going Places!

The Fauquier Amateur Radio Association (FARA) is an ARRL-affiliated association in the Roanoke Division. The association is located in Warrenton, Virginia, which is the county seat of Fauquier County.

Our focus is on ARES® activities, community support in emergency situations, and education.

We are available to support your Warrenton-area event with FREE radio communications. We support walk-a-thons, parades, dressage events, and bike rides. If you have an event coming up that could benefit from radio communications, please contact our public service/ARES® coordinator, Chuck - KG4LUO.

We offer classes to prepare you to take your FCC amateur radio examination, so you can discover this fun hobby and get on the air. Our education coordinator is Tom - KD5CMI. Please see our Education page for current class offerings.

FARA publishes a monthly newsletter called the Toroid, which is electronically mailed to the majority of the membership. If you would like to submit an article or have an idea for an article, contact the editor, Jim - KC4YJV.
