It will be broken into shifts so you can come and work for a few hours and enjoy the fair for free. If this is your first time or 30th time we would love to have your help. This is a great event for Amateur radio recruitment.I know because that is how I got into Amateur radio. If you can work the event or have any interest please please let me know the days and hours you wish to help after I get some basic shifts filled I will let everyone know where the holes are CALL SIGN : LAST NAME : FIRST NAME : PHONE NO. : TEXT : yes no DATES AND TIMES YOU CAN WORK : HAVE WORKED THIS EVENT BEFORE: THANK YOU !
