Hello BVARC!
Spring is halfway over, and summer is fast approaching. This May the club will
mostly be preparing for our big on air events in June (Museum Ships and ARRL
Field Day). There's lots of preparation to be done for June so if you have time
to volunteer for either of these events or to participate as an operator,
please see the details below and mark your calendars!
Museum Ships weekend will be the topic for our next club meeting on Thursday
May 9th. Mark Janzer (K5MGJ) is the coordinator for the event and if you're
interested in helping out he's your guy! Send him an email at k5...@yahoo.com.
The event takes place at Seawolf Park in Galveston on Saturday June 1st to
Sunday June 2nd (with some setup happening in the days before).
ARRL Field Day is another major event coming up in June both for the hobby and
for BVARC. This year BVARC's Field Day event will be at Duhacsek Park in Sugar
Land. The event spans Saturday June 22nd to Sunday June 23rd (with set up on
the Friday before). Richard Bonica (KG5YCU) is coordinating this year's BVARC
Field Day event and if you would like to help make the event a success by
volunteering or operating, please email Richard at kg5...@gmail.com. Keep an
ear out for more information as the final details of the event get published.
As always, please check out our website BVARC.org for updates, and for
information on our weekly in-person events, nets, and other resources. The May
Newsletter should be posted soon on the BVARC.org website. Don't forget about
our social media as well! We have a Facebook Page, a Discord Server, and
YouTube channel for the club. Add the BVARC Calendar to your calendar app (by

calendar as well as others as we confirm their dates.
