GHRC Outreach

 

Hello all,

At the last meeting outreach for recruiting new hams was discussed.

A couple of thoughts. In the past we would use some of the funds from GHRC to buy a new set of ARRL study and operating books for the Bozeman Public Library as a donation. Generally we would replace the books every two years. I believe that the ARRL has a package price for a set. It might have been $200.00.

Another idea is the science school down by the Mall has shown and interest in setting up a station there.

Neil,

Thank you for all your great ideas!? Also another Leon had suggested approaching the public libraries about filling a display window with ham gear and info about the ham hobby.? All great ideas for displaying and presenting to the public.? I will add them to our club ideas bin!? Thank you for sharing these great ideas--keep em coming!

I was the Director of Operations at the Montana Science Center (by the mall).? I left the Center a couple years ago as I moved to Whitehall.? The executive director also left to pursue other interests.? Sadly, the Science Center closed down permanently just a few months ago.?
 

How about contacting the home schooling organization in the Valley. Out in the country a great many kids are home schooled. I can find out who heads it up by asking my neighbor.

Good idea Robin!

I think we will start a discussion with the club at the next meeting and make a punch list for groups?we should reach out to. The grant money we received does indicate that we need to start with Scouts, but then we can go from there, so some of this outreach may need to come out of club funds.

Keep the ideas coming, though! Really appreciate everyone's support here.
