Due to the ongoing coronavirus CDC recommendations as well as state and city requirements all in person club activities are canceled for April, including the VE test session normally scheduled for April 11.

Saturday coffee at the clubhouse is canceled until further notice. The coronavirus patient numbers are increasing locally and there isn’t enough known about how it is spreading in the community.  Opening the clubhouse on Saturday mornings will be reviewed weekly.

Congratulations to Michael Van Norman, K6VN, from Santa Clarita, CA, for being the winner of the Elecraft K4 raffle! The drawing was held March 21, 2020, at the MARC clubhouse. Midland Police Chief Seth Herman drew the winning ticket. Thanks to everyone who participated!

Due to the COVID-19 coronavirus scare and the unpredictability of venue management and public officials, we are postponing the St. Patrick’s Day Hamfest and West Texas Section Convention scheduled for March 21, 2020. We are exploring the options to host the event this summer in either June or July. The new date will be announced as soon as it is confirmed.

All pre-registration, registration and extra chance tickets for door prizes will be honored during the rescheduled event as well as table reservations for the swap meet.

The Elecraft K4 raffle drawing will still be held March 21.

We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.
