The Jamboree is a world-wide event, & this year will mark the troop’s 1st attempt at the Jamboree.
I (Marty KA1WBN) have been asked by Jay to contact webmaster Charles N1LLL, & ascertain if GNARC’s website can somehow be slightly reconfigured, to make it easier for members to find minutes & some other hard-to-find club info.
Jay stated there is no special presentation planned for tonight, so he opened the floor to anyone who had a question about anything within the hobby.
Motion made by Sam to adjourn meeting, seconded by Jess ND1L at 9:40pm.
