NARS has secured permission to operate on Field Day this year from the Klein Fire Department facilities at 16810 Squyres Rd., Klein, TX 77379. NARS thanks the Klein Fire Department for the use of their facility

Be sure to check back here and on the reflector as plans develop for this event. We have an event coordinator and an antenna captain. We are looking for a CW captain and SSB caption, as well as several other positions. We will need all the help we can get from the membership as we plan for another successful and enjoyable event this year.
