CARP’s big fundraising event is the Phantom Fireworks Stand. Funds raised support the club by paying for insurance, room rental, repeater maintenance, site rental, meeting supplies, parties, contest excursions, etc. Please help support YOUR club by volunteering to work some time at the stand. If you are not able to volunteer, at least support the club by purchasing your fireworks from us!
The Fireworks stand is located on Herndon just east of Clovis Avenue on in the dirt lot on the north side of the street between McDonalds and Carl’s Jr.
The CARP BBQ and Swim party is back! In place of the August meeting CARP will have a BBQ/Swim party on Saturday August 6 starting at 1:00pm at Steve N6JXL’s Ranch at 10705 Butler in Sanger.
CARP Net Check-in Bonus Drawing for a Dual Band HT
For every validated check-in to the CARP Net between July 7 and November 24, 2011, CARP Members will earn a drawing ticket for the HT to be given away at the CARP Christmas Party.
You can not purchase tickets for this special drawing, they can only be earned by CARP Members for checking into the weekly CARP Net. The night of the CARP Christmas Party members will receive one ticket for each validated Net check-in made by that member during the specified period for the special drawing. The prize for this drawing will be a WOUXUN KG-UVD1P VHF / UHF Dual Band Hand Held radio!
Due to unseasonable weather CARP’s excursion for the June VHF QSO party has been moved. The new location is Pine Ridge School at the top of the 4-lane. We will be setting up on the landing just above the school Saturday morning.
