Dakota Division Virtual Meeting

ARRL Dakota Division Director Matt Holden, K0BBC, is hosting a Dakota Division virtual meeting (webinar) starting at 9:30AM on Saturday March 21, 2020.

Please visit the RRRA calendar listing for this event for more information (including the sign up link)

Officers and a Board of Directors are essential to the operation of the Red River Radio Amateurs and our club owes a debt of gratitude to those who have stepped forward to fill these leadership positions.

But, for the health of our organization, we can not continue to depend upon the same few individuals in perpetuity. It is, therefore, well past time for new Officers to step forward from within our membership.

As specified in [Article III] (/about/bylaws/#article-iii-fiscal-year) of the RRRA Bylaws, a leadership election will be conducted during the February Meeting.

• What positions must be filled?
• Where do you fit in?
• How do you run for office?

Membership renewals for 2020 are due at the January club meeting.

Dues (unchanged from 2019) are:

• Individual membership: $25
• Additional family members: $5 each

Please print out the membership application and bring it, along with your dues payment (cash, check or money order) to the next club meeting.

You may mail your membership application and dues payment if you are not able to attend a club meeting. Our mailing address is:

Items which will be sold during the W9NT (SK) Silent Auction. The proceeds from this auction will benefit RRRA.

• All purchases subject to our terms and conditions
• Listed items subject to change without notice and include only specifically listed accessories
• Listed items may differ from items depicted in reference links provided on this page

Gurnee Bridgman, W9NT, became a Silent Key April 17, 2019 (obituary) and generously remembered RRRA in his will.

A silent auction to liquidate W9NT station equipment willed to RRRA will be held immediately following the club’s July business meeting 16 July, 2019, at the West Fargo City Hall building, 800 4th Ave East, West Fargo, ND. The proceeds of this silent auction will benefit RRRA.

Gurnee was an active ham and kept his station—for the most part—up to date with modern equipment. The equipment offered for auction is presentable, clean, and was in use up until Gurnee became a Silent Key; however no warranty is implied or offered.
