Congratulations to Buck/K4HKR on his unanimous election to the EARS
Vice-Presidency per special election held at the April club meeting.
The recent name change from Enterprise State Junior College to
Enterprise-Ozark Community College means that the acronym EOCC will now
be used in the EARS newsletter to refer to our monthly meeting location.
Same campus ... same room ... same time ... just EOCC in lieu of ESJC
for the name of the place.
For more information on Enterprise-Ozark Community College (formerly
Enterprise State Junior College):
Be sure to attend the May and June EARS meetings as plans for Field Day
2003 are firmed up. Field Day is always the fourth full weekend of June
(this year being June 28/29) with contesting from 1800 UTC Saturday to
2100 UTC Sunday (1:00pm Saturday to 4:00pm Sunday local time).
Details on setup, food, rigs, food, antennas, food, personnel, food,
operations, food, and of course food will be finalized at the next two
EARS meetings.
And a hot rumor is that Darlene, wife of our club president Glenn/KD4FNI
and thus our official EARS First Lady, will be contributing dozens and
dozens of her world-famous home-made (mostly chocolate-chip I'm sure)
cookies on Field Day ... so, don't miss out!
