Field Day 2020

Field Day 2020

RCKARA will hold its annual Field Day at the National Guard Armory, 1111 N. Severance St., from 1 p.m. Saturday to 1 p.m. Sunday. Due to the ongoing pandemic, this won’t be the public event it usually is.  All area hams are invited to come and join in, though.

POST-FIELD DAY UPDATE

From club secretary Jerry, ACØRL:

RCKARA members, guests, applicants, and wannabees,

I would like to thank all of the participants that made this year’s Field Day so much fun and a huge success!

We had hams from Great Bend and McPherson show up and participate!

Our total score was 1250 points due to the served agencies and elected officials that showed up, and the kiddo’s that parents brought by.

Our thanks to the Kansas National Guard for allowing us to use their facility again and Reno County Emergency Management for the use of the Mad Cow.
