Greetings AMSATers,

Nova Maker Faire is coming up March 18th. This year, the venue will be the GMU campus. Attendance last year was over 4000.

Last year's AMSAT presence at the faire was a big hit. I hope you guys can exhibit again.

The organizers would like a placeholder application filled in by Jan 14. Let me know if you need help with registering.

Howie,

Thanks so much for joining us. It was great having you there -- your displays drew quite a crowd and you were wonderful in your interactions with the visitors to the table. We'd be happy to have you back next year!

Best,

-Mark

Howie -

I had my own booth to deal with so I only briefly walked through your area. I was told your $50SAT was a big attraction.

I look forward to AMSAT's participation next year; Hopefully between now and then and between yourselves and the Nova Maker ham community we can get some additional volunteers to staff demos and talks.

Mark your calendar for this time in 2018 !

Cheers, ..c KW4WQ

Dear Bob and Mark,

Thanks for inviting AMSAT to be part of the NOVA MakersFare. It was a great opportunity to expose so many interested people to amateur satellites.

I'm looking forward to doing this again.

Best regards,

Howie AB2S
