Exciting news from Lanark North Leeds ARES Inc.
LNL-ARES is hosting a ham radio hamfest
at the Maberly Fairgrounds on August 14th, Saturday morning.
We will not be seeking out commercial vendors; however,
if any wish to show up, they will be welcome to join in.
This event is primarily intended as a ham radio sales
/ swap event -- a kind of junk-in-your-trunk for fellow hams!
No tables nor chairs will be provided so you will need
to supply your own necessities -- RAIN OR SHINE, the event will go on!
Here are some preliminary details .....

To VENDORS: This event is one of the few opportunities
to get rid of your surplus gear in 2021 in Eastern Ontario!
What is no longer important to you may be someone
else's new treasure!
To HAM RADIO Ops: A chance to purchase extra radios
and/or radio and antenna gear that will enhance your operations for the
coming year.
Also, meet and chat with the (masked) faces you talk
to on the air!
SPECIAL NOTE TO LNL-ARES members and interested friends:
Our club will need YOUR support to make this event
happen!
Time is short so please think about this quickly and
respond with how YOU can help out our club.
A bit of help is required on Friday; however, the
bulk of the light work will need to be carried out onwards from 7:00 am
on the August 14th date.
PLEASE come out and support your club and advise us
as quickly as possible regarding what you can do to help with gate keeping,
vehicle/traffic control & parking, grounds marking,
Talk-In control, etc, etc.
