The Story County Amateur Radio Club (SCARC) will meet on Thursday, September 14, 2017. While the club normally meets on the first Thursday of the month, most of the officers will be participating in the National Guard Communications Exercise (COMMEX) on September 7 and 8. The meeting will feature the annual ‘show and tell’ format, along with a discussion of the Iowa QSO Party to be held on Saturday, September 16, 2017.

The meeting will begin at 7:30 p.m. in North Conference Room A on the first floor of Mary Greeley Medical Center. Parking is available near the northeast entrance. The meeting is free and open to the public.

Our second-annual August potluck picnic will occur on Sunday, August 13, from 5:00 to 8:00 PM

The club has reserved the Coneflower Shelter at Moore Memorial Park (3050 Northridge Pkwy in northwest Ames). Family and friends are also welcome – this is intended to be an informal social event for the club and a chance to get to know each other better. No sign-up or RSVP is required.

If you are attending, please bring one or more main course dishes to share (and maybe a side dish, too!) along with place settings (plates, silverware, napkins, etc.) and non-alcoholic beverages for your group.

The club will provide ice water and cold lemonade as well as disposable cups.

We’ll have lots of socializing, fun, and good food and hope to see you there!
