Field Day Rocked!!
I have seen a whole bunch of complex activities planned by all kinds of groups. This Field Day was a totally awe-inspiring organizational tour de force. I regret that urgent family issues kept me from fully participating this year. However, next year I hope to sit at the feet of whoever organized this event and learn something. Thank you so very much for showing my club to be the whole house full of professionals that it is! Next year I will be there with my "100th anniversary Vibroplex 'Bug'" and offering a hand for the guy wires or whatever else needs doing. Whatta Club!!
