SCARC Board Meeting Board Meetings are regularly held 7:00 PM on the first Thursday of each month. Virtual via Zoom. US Islands Contest August 26, 2023. This is a great opportunity for the club to work together and compete. The contest objective is for non-island stations to work as many North American Islands as possible in a relatively short period (only 15 hours) on the 4th Saturday in August beginning at 1200Z. For Island stations, the goal is to work other islands and as many other stations as possible. Precise rules to be determined. In 2015, 2016, 2018, 2020 and 2022, the club operated from Camano Island (K7IOC's QTH). HF Mobile stations to act as rovers are especially encouraged to participate in support of the club. Does anyone have a boat? If you are interested in operating from any of the many islands in the greater Puget Sound region, please let us know early so we may include you in our operating plans. Contact Lee - K7IOC for more details. Also, see our US Islands page. SCARC Officer Elections in September Every September at the Club meeting, an election is held to select officers for the coming year. The effective date begins immediately following this meeting. Nominees may be submitted at the meeting. However, nominations by the previous meeting are encouraged. SCARC Annual Christmas Party Dec 14, 2023 Thursday
