Great Scott,
look at all that
"stuff" to be
sorted. What a
JOB.

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 our net formally, just go to the NET CHECK IN tab to the left, or perhaps just feel free to 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.
