Once again this excellent Rally proved a great success for all concerned and an excellent day in particular for the RASARS Stand.
There was the usual high turnout of quality amateur radio traders, a super flea market and Special Interest groups and much of interest for the rest of the family.
The weather remained fine all day and was not too warm as it can be at this Rally having regard to its date.
Over 70 Members signed the visitors' book and 5 Members re-joined on the day.
On parade were Derrick MØBDD, Bryan MØOIC, Linda 2E1SIS, Steven 2EØCND and Russ GØOKD. Derrick and Russ would like to send their thanks to all the Members who attended and the helpers for making the day such a success.
We look forward to meeting Members at the Lincoln and Donington Rallies later in the year. Watch the amateur Press and the RSARS website for further details.

We'll let Bryan tell you about his innovative idea:-
"I took with me the QSL Bureau (in envelope form) - hence Derrick's guard dog
19 of the members signing in were presented with envelopes containing QSL cards awaiting despatch to them which put a smile on their faces - totally unexpected but also saved them a stamp hi! A little extra work but the smiles made it all worthwhile and with Steven 2EØCND as Assistant Bureau Manager for the day it worked well. I will do the same for the Leicester ARS Rally in September at Donington."

The T-shirts displayed by models MØOIC and 2E1SIS were very kindly sent to us as surprise present from Geoff AD7JC our member in Arizona. Linda is the more presentable of the two so she is modelling the front whereas Bryan shows the back view
