RARSfest Get-Togethers
Is your family, bunch of friends, special interest group, or amateur radio club coming from out of town? Would you like to get together before, after, or during RARSfest? Would you like to let everyone know when and where you are getting together? If you don't have your own space at the hamfest, you can use the “Rag Chew” area in the northeast corner of the show floor (to the left as you enter, by the door to the restaurant).
Message the Webmaster with the details of your get-together – the name of your group, date and time you are meeting, where you are meeting, and any special notes. Include your contact information, so we can confirm any details.
