| Activities As a volunteer organization, activities will vary as the interests of the membership vary, but traditionally include Club meetings, usually with guest speakers, a Club banquet meeting in December, Field Day -- conducted now at Burbank School on Allen in Altadena, a picnic in late summer, and occasional building projects. Some highlights from the Club's history include the first Amateur Radio Station to ride in a float in the Tournament of Roses Parade and the Special Event Station fielded in honor of the re-opening of the Colorado Street Bridge over the Arroyo Seco. |

Point your e-mail program to- mailto:PRC-Club-subscribe@yahoogroups.com -and send a (blank) message, and if you are a current, paid-up member, you will soon get a confirmation message back from the moderator(s), Phil WA6DZS or Michael KK6WO. There's no SPAM, and there's a Website to post pictures, files, whatever you want to share with your Club. It is currently set up to send meeting reminders, and if it gets to be too much traffic, you can set it for daily digests, or Web-only access, and just go to the Website when you want to see what's been posted lately. |
