Submission Deadline for 2018 WPA Yearbook

What a year it has been! 2018 will go down in the record books a a banner year for Amateur Radio in our Western Pennsylvania Section. Activity is up, and our hamfests were better than ever! reports from everywhere are coming in about Field Day, Youth Activities, Club activities, Public Service and so much more!

Once again, we are going to document this in the 2018 edition of the WPA Yearbook — and you can help! Please send your photos, write-ups, press releases, etc to:

yearbook@wpa-arrl.org

For photos, please try to  identify all the hams in the photo, and tell us what they’re doing (and don’t forget, where, when and why!) If minor children under 18 are identifiable in the photo, please make sure you have a model release form signed by their Parent or Guardian on file, and indicate this–by name– with your submission. The standard ARRL form is available here (but please don’t send it to Newington, since the photo is not going to be published in QST. Instead please keep the form on file in your records.)

We would like to have the finished Yearbook available for the Holidays, so everyone can share it with their friends and families. Therefore, we are making the deadline for all articles, and photos Tuesday, November 20th.

It took a lot of work to put the 2017 Yearbook together, and with all the activities this year, it might be even bigger and better! So please send your contributions as early as you can!
