Celebrating Our Fiftieth Year.
Thanks to everyone who made the event successful!
Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves along with great food.
Not many Radio contacts were made, but a good time was had by all.

A Email from Dave Smith K5MGB
I hope your special event station had a great time. I was unable to hear you with all the contest activity.
I was a member of your club and took a Novice class sponsored by the club back around 1961.
I was about 16 then, and in high school. My first call was kn8wix, then k8wix, and now k5mgb after moving to Texas.
Glenn Lubinshiner taught the class (forgot his call) .
At that time the club met in a building next to the fair grounds and had a couple stations set up.
Many of the Chillicothe hams helped Elmer me and most are probably sk by now.
Ham radio helped me go into a career in electronics and has been a good hobby all my life.
Just wanted to say thanks and congratulations to the SVARC on your 50th anniversary.
Sincerely
DAVE SMITH K5MGB
