The NAQCC Spring 2008 Rag Chew Award

Comments:

Tom wants to encourage all members to engage in rag chewing during the spring season each year. This award should appeal to those who want to engage in club activities but don't care for our sprints, challenges, or other club activities for whatever reason.


Results:

Call    Number of rag chews
K3WWP    19

Soapbox:

K3WWP - The last of my rag chews came on June 1st. I just never found the time to do as much chewing as I would have liked to. Also the poor conditions of late cut short some potential rag chews. Anyway as always it is enjoyable to get to know more about the hams we work via rag chewing. I hope that many of you will send in your results for this one. If we don't get many reports this year, we may think about discontinuing this event.
