-==== Club Restart Meeting ====
-The 285 TechConnect Radio Club is pleased to announce that we are resuming monthly meetings, starting with a "Kickoff" meeting on Saturday, August 7th, at 10 AM, at the [[http://intercanyonfire.org/stations/#station3|ICFPD Station #3]], 8445 South Highway 285. We will have doughnuts and coffee available prior to the meeting, at 9:30.

We're looking forward to seeing everyone!
