October Calendar of Club Events

AI Generated FALL RADIO Scene

As the month of September comes to a rapid conclusion, we find ourselves squarely in the fall season here in Michigan. Here’s a roll-up of what’s on the South Lyon Area Amateur Radio Club calendar for this month:

Weekly: Sunday Evening 8pm – The Official SLAARC NET (Open to all licensed Amateurs)

Join us to chat about your recent radio achievements, hear club news, and have a chat with other club members. The weekly Sunday Evening net is the official NET of the SLAARC club and occurs on each Sunday on N8SL (147.040+ 110.9pl) where the club doesn’t have a regular monthly in-person Meeting!

Weekly: Thursday Evening 10pm – The Informal Late-Night Roundtable. (Open to all licensed Amateurs)

The Late-Night round table brings a bit more casual conversation with other night-owls on the repeater N8SL (147.040+ 110.9pl). This is not a formal net, so feel free to come by, jump into the conversation whenever a topic peaks your interest. Hosted by N8JRD or W8KNX, we’d love to have you for a late-evening chat!

Monthly Club-Meeting: Sunday October 13th at 6:30pm – In-Person (Open to all)

The monthly club-meeting is an opportunity for members to meet in person and share a dinner (optional) at the Witch’s Hat Brewing Company (starts at 5pm) before proceeding across the street to the official meeting place. Club meetings occur at Witch’s Hat Depot starting at 6:30pm, and generally last 1 hour. Topics for each months meeting will be posted prior to the meeting. This event is open to anyone with an interest in the club or amateur radio. You do not need to be a member to join us!

Support Your Parks Autumn Event: Saturday October 19th at 10am – In-Person (Open to all)

This month is the quarterly Parks on the Air event: Support Your Parks weekend is an opportunity for interested Amateurs to gather and activate a local park with friends. Parks on the Air provides a fun, social way to get on the radio and patronize your local State Parks. The event this month will occur at Silver-Lake Day-Use Area, Address: 2 Crooked Lake Trail, Pinckney, MI 48169 – We will meet starting at 10am, and be on the radio through about 2pm! Come on out, and learn more about Parks on the Air and get on the radio!

Monthly 2-Beer Social Radio Hour: Friday October 25th at 4:30pm – In-Person (Open to all, 21up)

Come check out our newly introduced “2-beer Social” and chat about radio projects with other like minded folks! We would love to see you and raise a pint with some club members to talk about the hobby and enjoy a cold brew at the end of the week. Occurs the last Friday of each month from 4:30-6:00pm. This month we will meet at Drafting Table Brewing in Wixom!

We hope to see you out at one of our events this month!

73 for now – N8JRD
