Thanks everybody who volunteered at the Osseo Lions Roar Parade. The Lions appreciate how smoothly their parade goes when we are there. And we have fun doing it.

We had two great events in August. The Antique Car Run went very well. We even got a message from the organizers- they had heard from a lot of drivers that appreciated the presence of ham radio. They felt great that someone was there watching over them. A lot of us also helped at the…

Maple Grove Radio Club had a great month in June. I’d like to thank everybody who helped with communications with the BikeMS-150, Grandma’s Marathon, and most importantly with Field Day. The scores for Field Day have not been calculated, but in terms of what was important, it was a big win for us. Although the…

We’re finally getting back into the swing of things with two great ham radio events this month, and more coming up. First off is the BikeMS-150. Normally, this is a two-day event from Duluth to White Bear Lake. This year it’s shortened to just one day, on June 12th. We are still looking for a…

I just spent a pleasant day working in the garden, something I really enjoy doing in the spring. Seeing everything come alive after a long winter is inspiring. And it seems Maple Grove Radio Club, ham radio, and our whole community is coming alive after a very long winter of Covid. If people continue to…

As I write this, I’m getting ready to head up to Bluefin Bay Resort, where I’ll be on net control for the Beargrease Sled Dog race. Many of us are also going up to help with net control, road crossings, or checkpoints. With Covid, there haven’t been a lot of volunteer opportunities this year, so…

With two vaccines approved and vaccinations underway, things are finally starting to look up. Maybe by the end of the summer we’ll be able to finally get back to what we do best, serving the public. There’s a possibility we’ll have an outdoor hamfest in the parking lot of the Golden Valley American Legion sometime…
