March of 1987
First meeting 20 local hams attended.
Original meeting
site was at the Lancaster School Bldg. on Central Ave. We moved to
our present location ( Aurora St. Middle School ) the following year.
Our first hamfest
( Ham Radio show) was in 1988 held at Joseph Manor. As the Hamfest
grew each year we were forced to change sites to Elks Club, then
Darien Center Fire Hall to The Hearthstone Manor and currently the Leonard
Post.
Winter hamfest was
added in 1998 at the Leonard VFW Post.
The 2 Meter Repeater
was first at Dick W2UJR's QTH, eventually moved to present location on
Pavement Rd.
Club House...
About 1988 the first club house location was at the Lancaster Boys
Club on Broadway. A small room was used for a short period of time.
We decided to leave this location because of the lack of room and
capabilities of installing an antenna system.
In 1994, the newly elected
Lancaster Supervisor Lucian Greco agreed to let our club use a building at
the town center on pavement Rd. The following year we were leased a better
building on Pavement Rd, which is now our present location.
