Notes from the Hamfest:

Another hamfest is in the books. This year's hamfest was in a new location
with new challenges. Still, it was a successful day and that means SMARS will
be funded for another year.

We offered a VE session at this year's hamfest, the first in many years. We were
expecting a handfull of people and were surprised when we saw the line. There were
7 new Technicians and 7 upgrades, so it was time well spent. Hopefully, this will
be a feature of hamfests in the future.

I would like to thank all the volunteers who make this hamfest possible. I'd try
to name everybody, but I'd likely forget a few, so instead here's a collective thank you
to everybody for their help. It's our club and I was glad to see so many members of
SMARS pitching in to help.
