BARA PRESIDENT'S REPORT

OCTOBER 2009 NEWSLETTER

From The President's Desk of George KC6KGH

There's the distinct possibility that we're going to get severly spoiled by having these wonderful Potlucks. Well, we are, and that's that! The cooler weather is upon us and it's just great.But it does let me know that I'd better get moving a little faster so that any antenna work gets done before the Wind and Rain gets here.I might sound like a broken record, but from all signs, and reports, this winter is going to be a real stinker.So, check your stuff and make sure it's "good to go." See you all at the Potluck Sunday the 11th at 3pm.

Til then 73....George,KC6KGH. B.A.R.A. President
