Amateur radio kid's day
Amateur radio kid's day is coming to Sedro-Woolley on Saturday, June the 19th from 10:00am to 3:00 pm, at the River Front Park. Kids of any age, and adults too, can find out what amateur radio is about and have an opportunity to talk on an amateur radio station with other kids from many other places and possibly other countries. Members of the Radio Amateurs of Skagit County will set up radios and antennas on Saturday and will mentor those who would like participate. The event is sponsored by the Amateur Radio Relay League which is the national arm of the amateur radio community. Come on out and talk to the world on Saturday.
