[bars] [Board] ARRL Trip March 24, 2023

[Bill Poulin]

Doug,

I agree to cancel the bus.

I am willing to drive 3-4 people in my car.  My GPS knows the way after 6
trips to ARRL and 3 trips to REIN's (Exit 65 off Route 84) (roughly 30
miles North of Newington).

Just need saddle-up time (9:00-9:30am?) on Friday from the Church.  See you
then.

73,


Bill Poulin, WZ1L
Board Member
