New Venue For Field Day And July Meeting

It is that time of year again. Field day is only a few days off.  Activities will begin Friday afternoon, around 4:30 PM. Teams will start setting up at this time. Feel free to drop by and help out.

Several things will break with tradition this year. For one thing, the location. Field day will be held this year at the Kathleen Historical Society Grounds. There is plenty of room to place antennas, the facility is air conditioned, and there is indoor plumbing. As usual there will be plenty to eat.

You can get directions on Google  https://www.google.com/maps/@28.1636539,-82.0115195,473m/data=!3m1!1e3

Here is a map of the general area. The location is a bit out of the way, so plan ahead before you jump into your vehicle. (you can click on this map to enlarge it.)
