NOTICE: General Meeting Location & Date Change

Hello ARROW,

After our last general meeting the facilities manager at Liberty school in Saline informed us that they will need to start charging us for the use of the cafeteria. Once we received this information, we started to look for other venues to host our meetings that meets our needs.

We have found a venue that meets our needs and is a good partnership but requires a move in the meeting date. We did a review of other amateur radio meetings and activities to decide on a good day of the month for the ARROW general meeting.

Going forward the ARROW general meeting will be held on the 3rd Tuesday of each month from 7:00-9:00pm (6:30pm pre meeting gathering). The meeting location will be at Maker Works (3765 Plaza Dr, Ann Arbor, MI 48108) which is down the street from the Ann Arbor Airport.

The plan is still to have the meeting as Hybrid with zoom for those that can’t join in person. We hope that everyone is still able to attend our general meeting with the date change. The location should be easier to access as it is just off of the I-94 State Street exit.

To learn more about what topics are on the agenda for the general meeting please visit our website for details (https://w8rp.org/2024-meetings/).

Thanks for your understanding
