2006 ARRL Rocky Mountain Division Convention Planning Begins

Planning for the 2006 ARRL Rocky Mountain Division Convention officially got underway in January with its first meeting in Castle Rock.  Under the leadership of General Chairman, Jerry VerDuft ADØA, another creative and energetic committee is assembled and raring to go!!

As those of you who attended know well, the bar was set extremely high with a superb 2003 convention.  To make the 2006 convention to be even better, we’ve really got our work cut out for us!  So, please take a look at the list of committee chairs in this article, and let us know your comments, suggestions and ideas.  We really want to hear from you!

The 2006 Convention will be held again at the Holiday Inn in beautiful Estes Park, Colorado on June 9-11, 2006.  The hotel was tremendously supportive of us in 2003, and has given us excellent rates for 2006.  Make plans now to join us for the entire convention!

We’ll keep you well updated over the coming months, but again, please let us know your thoughts as to how this convention can be the best ever!

For the committee, 73,

Steve Williams, KØSRW
