In 2024 we held Field Day in Metchosin behind the Metchosin Municipal Hall. The club invited all hams as well as the general public to participate to and make as many contacts as possible.
Field Day is the one of single most popular on-the-air events held annually in the US and Canada. Each year, thousands of radio amateurs gather with their clubs, groups or simply with friends to operate from remote locations.
