Hello Scott,
Thanks for your message. Glad to meet you.
Do you *live* in the Waldorf, Md. area as well? There are
several AMSAT members in southern Maryland, as you will
discover while you hang out with us on the amsat-dc e-mail
list, meet on various local repeaters, run into each other
at local hamfests, and participate in AMSAT activities in
the Maryland-D.C. area.
Several of us will be at the hamfest in Timonium, Md. on
Saturday/Sunday, March 29-30. We will host an AMSAT
table there. Hope you can attend.
Many of us will be celebrating Space Day 2008 at the
Smithsonian Air & Space Museum next to the national mall
in D.C. on Saturday, May 3. Frank Bauer, KA3HDO, and
others are organizing the AMSAT events that day with
planning in the works, so keep an eye out for news on the
amsat-dc list, on www.amsat.org and in the AMSAT Journal.
Please join us!
Lockheed Martin is presenting Family Space Day
at the Smithsonian National Air & Space Museum in
Washington, D.C. Organization Type: Smithsonian
National Air & Space Museum. We expect 10,000
participants for this event. Admission: Free.
Other activities abound. Watch too the ANS bulletins!
Hope to meet you in the main stream sometime soon.
Sincerely,
Pat
