SECRETARY / TREASURER'S REPORT:

Secretary / Treasurer Report:

We have had the fortune of some new members to the club. I would like to thank the following new Member for their new membership in the Club: Karmin Peterson (KD5VCW). It has been awhile since a roster has been provided to the members within the newsletter. In this issue you will find a complete roster of the SFARC Membership. Only names, general location, and callsigns are included within the listing.

If I missed any new members, please let me know. All of our members are dear to this club from the support they have offered and the contribution / dedication to the amateur radio community that they represent.

Interesting statistics of the makeup of the Club are as follows:

Full Voting Members: 64
Associate Members (Non-Voting): 10
Family Memberships: 14 representing 31 members of the SFARC Club
Club members who are also ARRL members: Approx. 39

ARRL membership counts toward affiliation with the Amateur Radio Relay League (ARRL) a worthwhile organization to become affiliated with and to join so please consider doing just that.

Visit the SFARC website (www.w5sf.com) often. So until next time we contact, meet, or otherwise communicate with each other...

73, de Michael, KD5HVL
