The Monday Morning Memo

I was just reading the latest issue of the Monday Morning Memo. John, WA8KIW of the Highland ARA has a unique newsletter schedule; weekly! 

Each Monday, he puts out the Monday Morning Memo, which does a good job of keeping the Hams in SW Ohio informed of the goings on in that part of the state. It's usually like pulling hens teeth just to get someone to volunteer to edit a monthly newsletter; and here we have a club that puts one out weekly.
I see a lot of advantages to this format. So many that I copied the format, and now do something similar up here in the NE section of the state.
Here's some highlights from the latest issue:
Bob, K8TQK will be presenting his weak UHF/VHF signal program at the next Scioto Valley ARC meeting on the 17th.

Do you know someone who had a ham license prior to March 21, 1987 but let it expire?  If so, they can get it back by taking an Element 2 (Technician) exam.  Even if they had a Extra, they need only take Element 2 to get the full Extra credit back.

It looks like the Clinton County ARA will be assisting the Clinton County Health department, by providing communications for a Health Fair on August 8th & 9th. 

John mentions again that time is getting short. The Ohio State Parks On The Air contest is on September 6th. Any operating event can be a great club activity. it should be noted that I am on the board for OSPOTA; so sorry if I tend to be a bit biased.
