Some of the LARC YL's are heading out to Fanshawe Conservation area this morning to do a POTA in recognition of International Women's Day. Not sure what bands, or under what callsign(s) yet, but keep your eyes out to spot! If fingers and toes get too cold, or the wind gets up too much they may retreat to hunt only. Fingerless gloves a must-have today!

Fire Prevention Week 2025 is on the doorstep (Oct 5-11): volunteer operators using special event callsign VA3FIRE are invited to check out the instructions on the groups.io page (link in the comments). Also a great opportunity for new LARC members with little to no HF experience to get on the air at the club station and participate in this worthwhile event.
