We had an outstanding hamfest this year.

Attendance exceeded last year’s, with about 100 attendees and exhibitors.

Of course, it wasn’t without its hitches, from the start when we arrived the place was a disaster. We walked in and they had been painting the large hall. The overspray covered everything, and there was high lift equipment in the way. Those that showed up started sweeping and mopping the floors and Charles and Sgt. Seal moved the high lifts. We did a fair job of cleaning up and putting out tables and chairs.

A couple folks arrived to set up early.

Saturday morning, Charles opened up around 6:45 and folks began to set up. All the tables were used and the facility was jam-packed. Great stuff was for sale and great memories were made.

We took in $105 in refreshment sales and $327 in raffle tickets for the prizes for a total of $432. Estimated expenses of $228.43 for the radio and about $40 for refreshments for a total expense about $268.43. That leaves the club with about $163.57 profit!

Added to our existing bank balance of $8,228.77, that gives us about $8,392.34.

Thanks to all those who volunteered and made this happen!
