Under the ARRL Club Commission Membership Recruitment Program, clubs
retain $15 for each NEW membership and $2 for each renewal submitted
(regular and senior memberships only).

A NEW MEMBER is defined as any individual who has never been a member of ARRL or any individual who has not retained a membership for two or more calendar years prior to the application submission.

Do you need to thin out your radio stuff? Are you tripping over junk that you don't need?

Are you looking for that first start up radio?

Well, do I have a deal for you! The 2nd annual CCARC Tailgate

Swap Meets will help solve your problems. As they say, one man's junk is another man's treasure, and you can find both at a swap meet.

This is FREE to both buyers and sellers. That's right FREE. No charge at all. You bring the tail gate, extra tables, chairs, pop-up shelters, whatever you need to be comfortable. This event will be held rain or shine. For more information contact Rob Haller, K7JAO at k7jao@arrl.net.

There will also be a test session from 10:00 AM to NOON inside the legion hall. Come and take your test and buy a new/used radio all at the same time. For more information contact Wayne Schuler, AI9Q at ai9q@arrl.net.
