GENERAL
The LOGO below was voted on at the October 2nd meeting as the LOGO the club will use after an in-depth review of all the many comments which could affect the LOGO's final design. This entry was submitted by Val Skorpion, the daughter of KJ7MJU Debby and sister of KI7KDE Derek Knutson and is just one of many of her well-done entries.
Club Dues for 2022
No increase this year, $15 plus only $6 for each additional family member.
Mail your check to:
ACARC, PO Box 5283, Wenatchee WA 98807
One of the most regular and well-attended events that ACARC sponsors is our Tuesday night Net Check-ins. Just to give you an idea of the activity this year, see the spreadsheet below. A greater number of people are involved here than in our Club Meetings - or just about anything else we do.
Weekly updates are especially important during these times of change and instantaneous re-arrangement.
You are welcome to join in the Net formally, or perhaps just listen in to the announcements on Tuesdays at 8:00 pm - if nothing else just so you can keep up to speed on events happening - or not happening - or dates changing.
GUESTS are ALWAYS welcome.
