An early morning journey to the Lincoln swap meet was made by from left to right KN6QBY Aaron Keese, KB6USJ Michael Grcevich, W6RXK Steve Airola. With a horse trailer full of Ham equipment money was made to help fund the club, and new owners were found for the Ham gear. A great day was had for the participants as well as the bargain seekers at the swap. Thanks go out to the Western Placer Amateur Radio Club for continuing this annual event which is so successful in bringing Hams together. Will be out there next year.
