ARRL Special Service Club Award
A club that exists to go above and beyond for their communities and for Amateur Radio is what defines a Special Service Club (SSC). They are the leaders in their Amateur Radio communities who provide active training classes, publicity programs and actively pursue technical projects and operating activities.
NIARA members and friends enjoyed a delicious lunch in honor of the association’s highly successful 80th Anniversary year, 2019. President John Chalmers opened the event with introductions. Afterwards, a few moments of silence allowed everyone to reflect privately and give thanks.
