Hello all:

First and foremost, as just a ham radio operator and regular person,
secondly as a Section Emergency Coordinator, and third as the secretary
of the Arkansas Repeater Council, I want to congratulate ARVARF on the
excellent work putting on a Hamfest! From all the reports I received,
the venue was great, the POTA station was a hit, it was very well
attended, and much visiting was done. The pictures I saw made me very
happy that we are finally able to get back to doing what we do best, and
that is fellowship!

Now, I want everybody to have access to a YouTube video where the
Arkansas Statewide Operability Coordinator Penny Rubow talks about the
Solar Eclipse 2024 Planning effort. The State and regional meetings are
just starting, and Ham EMCOMM has a huge opportunity to put a good foot
forward. This is probably the best chance we've ever had to show and
utilize our capabilities. Please join with me in helping our
communities. There is so much we can do, now is the time to begin
figuring out just what and how.

This is the URL to the YouTube video. I'm pretty sure you will have to
copy and paste into your browser.

As always, let me know what I can do to help you.

Thanks and 73,

J.M. Rowe N5XFW
AR Section Emergency Coordinator
