Online Renewal Works !!!

I know some of you have had problems when trying to renew your memberships, and attempting to us PayPal as part of the process.  It appears that a specific Drupal Module was at fault.  To fix it, I had to completely rebuild the webform page from start, which along with the problem solving took me most of the day yesterday. 

So the bottom line is the Membership Renewal page is working like it should today.  Interestingly because the page was made slightly differently, the Application for Membership page worked perfectly throughouit.

2018 Holiday Party

 

The Anne Arundel Radio Club held it's annual Holiday party at Ford Hall on the grounds of the DFRC. Attendance was the highest in recent years due to the number of recent graduates of the fall tech class.

The menu included the standard slow roasted ham and turkey and other savory items that were followed by a wide selection of cakes, pies and cookies.
