This came as a request to AMSAT. It is to far away for me to show my
shack. Maybe someone closer in the Houston area could help. Feel free to
contact the Scoutmaster in the email.
Thanks

*Re: Requesting Permission For a Field Trip To Your Amateur Radio Station*
Respected Sir/Madam,
I hope you are doing well. I am writing this letter with a humble
request to allow our scout troops (1993-Girls and 993-Boys) to visit
your Amateur Radio Station.
We are looking at a Saturday, Sept 17 or 24, 2022 (depending on your
availability).
Time: Anytime from 10 am to 4 pm
My name is Philip Soneye, an assistant Scoutmaster with the above
troops, We are a member of Boy Scouts of America and our troops are
located at 2201 S Dairy Ashford Rd, Houston, TX, 77077
We are preparing our troops to participate in the world’s largest radio
Scouting event called Jamboree on the Air. This will allows our Scouts
to connect to other Scouts from around the world. The event is open to
Scouts around the world, enabling young people to connect and
communicate with each other using the Internet and amateur radio. You
can read more about this at https://www.jotajoti.info/
We thought it is important to prepare our boys/girls for this great
event by arranging a small field trip to your Radio Station, to learn
how to build a radio receiver, radio waves, their propagation, and how
Amateur Radio works.
We did some research online, we are inspired by your Amateur Radio
Station, we thought our Scout troops will benefit more from this in
checking off the requirement for their Citizenship in the World merit
badge and International Spirit Award. We are sure your team would help
them understand how the whole process works and give them a unique
experience in preparing for Jamboree on the Air 2022.
You may contact me at the email provided below. I shall be looking
forward to your positive response. Thank you.
Best Regards,
*Philip Soneye*
