Are you considering becoming a Ham Operator?
Becoming a Ham Operator has several advantages, such as:
-
Emergency Communications: During natural disasters or emergencies, amateur radio operators can provide communication when traditional communication methods are down.
-
Technology: It is a great way to get hands-on experience with radio and communication technology.
-
Ham radio operators can join clubs or groups where they can meet like-minded people and participate in events and contests.
-
Personal Development: It also builds skills such as communication, problem-solving, and technical expertise.
Amateur Radio is an exciting hobby that continues to grow in popularity. It provides opportunities for personal growth, education, and building relationships with people all over the world.
Join the Massillon Amateur Radio Club on the first Friday of each month for our monthly get together! And for more information about our club visit our Facebook page or email:

Massillon Christmas Parade – Sat. Nov. 22
Volunteers - Sign-Up Starts NOW.
It's time to sign-up for one of the most enjoyable public service events that MARC participates in each year. Let us know if you'd like to volunteer. We encourage everyone to get involved and enjoy a front row seat for this much-anticipated yearly parade.
The parade steps-off at 5:00 pm. but we'll be ready to go well ahead of schedule. Operators are needed in staging and on the parade route.
After the parade we will meet back at MARC HQ (St. Paul's Church) for a spread of "junk" food & hot chocolate (sloppy joes, hot dogs, and some fixin's) - FREE. Family members, friends & visitors are welcome and encouraged to come along. Restrooms will be available at the church throughout the afternoon and evening.
We will have much more specific information here and at the next monthly meeting. A sign-up sheet will be available at the Nov. meeting as well.
