As usual, GVARC will be coordinating communication assitance for the 30th annual Tour de Gruene bicycle event on November 2nd, and 3rd.
This event has several sub-events with the main event occuring on November 2nd, 2013 and the time trials on Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning.
There are still a few positions open and the club would enjoy your support. Contact us and put “Tour de Gruene” in the subject line.

The second public testing session was held on the morning of September 21st, 2013 to avoid conflicts with the Belton Hamfest. The session went off without a hitch and once again produced outstanding results.
We had three hams upgrade their licenses, and gained two new hams!
Congrats to all the candidates and a big thanks to the VE team, led by K5GST, for all that they do!
For anyone planning ahead, GVARC will be participating in the Society for the Preservation of Amateur Radio (SPAR) 2014 Winter Field Day event on January 25th and 26th.
As with all GVARC events, fun and fellowship will be emphasized while demonstrating our competence as amateur radio operators. Maybe it will be cool outside…
1100 CST January 25th, 2014 through 1100 CST January 26th, 2014.
WD5GQT has offered to host this event at his QTH.
