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.
