    Joplin Hamfest

    August 23-24, 2024

    The Joplin Amateur Radio Club W0IN will be celebrating the 35th year
    of hosting the Joplin Hamfest. The event is located near I-44 and I-49
    in Joplin, MO. The event venue, the Joplin Family Worship Center, is
    air conditioned and carpeted with over 100 indoor tables, commercial
    vendors, abundant free paved parking, a food commissary, ease of
    access, and ADA compliant.

    This year we are pleased to be hosting the Missouri Repeater Council,
    our ARRL Midwest Director, District D ARES, and the Arkansas Razorback
    Net folks. Along with forums and meetings, we will have two sessions
    of ARRL VE testing. In accord with ARRL s goal to bring young people
    into the hobby, the Joplin club will have their trailer set up to
    enable middle-school students to experience the magic of ham
    radio. And, of course, there will be lots of prizes too!

    Online registration closes Wednesday at midnight, so don't delay.
