Crater Lake Rim Runs 2024 4
Greetings all, Now that Field Day is over, it’s time to plan for the the Crater Lake Rim Runs (“Rim Run”). One 6.7-mile run, a half marathon and a marathon, the Rim Run occurs on the second Saturday of August each year at the spectacular rim of America’s deepest blue lake. Walt and I will once again be your Rim Run coordinators this year and we’re looking for volunteers to help out with communications on August 10th. For most stations, a handheld radio is all that's needed to participate. We will talk about this more at the upcoming monthly meeting. Please check your calendar and let Walt or me know if you will be available to help out. -- 73 | Cyndi Albro | KK7AZD | Chiloquin by Agency Lake HH 6101191 | HOIP 100097 | kk7azd@...

KBARA Field Day 3
KBARA, Thank you to everyone who made this year's Field Day a huge success! There were many members who could not attend. You were missed! I am often TOO busy at meetings and miss opportunities to interact with our awesome membership. I personally enjoy Field Day and the Club Picnic as times to talk and share stories with club members. Remember this month's meeting is again at the Washington Federal Conference Room at 6 (or 6:30 if you don't want the class [on ferrites this month]). To those who supported Field Day with investments from their own personal funds, please bring your receipts to the meeting tonight for reimbursement. Thanx, Jeff Eastburn, KBARA Sec/Treas.

Silent Key
Sad to report that WB7DDH Raymond Searcy passed away this afternoon with his family by his side at the age of 90. According to K-Bar-A history he donated $100 towards the purchase of a new GE 2 Meter repeater for Hamaker in 1978. Raymond's Grandson is WRJY779 Forest who is on the Klamath Falls GMRS repeater. His Grandfather was a Freight Train worker. As he rolled around the USA in the Caboose, he ran a HF rig, would talk and CW all over the world as they rolled down the tracks. Forest got his Grandfather a GMRS radio so he could listen in, a couple times would talk to his Great Grandchildren on the radio! -- Dale Beaty N6ZCMWRTX950
