Mike and Key Club Ham Fest June 4^th.!!!

 Plans continue to be grafted into a working model for the “swap”. Diagrams, sketches and numbers are put into Excel sheets and Google maps to lay out a flow of traffic.

 A lot of things to consider--  table layout, food, parking, setting up and taking down etc…                              The biggest factor -the people resource. Not the customers – but the volunteers to make this happen. If all those that raised their hand and voted

for this event, volunteered.. no problem…    Please plan now to volunteer for this…  Contact Pres. Paul KBØP, kbØp@yahoo.com
