[WN4RC Announcements] Lester Flatt / Liberty Square Event - Support White County Amateur Radio Club

[Evans Martin]

Hello Amateur Radio Friends!

WN4RC is happy to announce that we will be working with White County 
Amateur Radio Club to share the joy of ham radio at the Liberty Square / 
Lester Flatt event in Sparta, TN this weekend (Oct. 11).  We will be 
helping to man the tent on the square by the courthouse and will have 
radios to demonstrate and people willing to answer any questions you 
have about amateur radio and about general emergency preparedness.

Club members, bring a radio and take a turn in the tent.

Everyone else, come out and have a great time, learn more about radio, 
and make some contacts if you want!

You can read more about the event below.
