2026 Winter Field Day : January 24 - 25, 2026
https://winterfieldday.org
As some of you may be aware, the 2026 edition of the Winter Field Day event is slated for the last weekend in January, which is the 24th and 25th of January in 2026. This event is considerably different from the ARRL summer Field Day event that takes place during the last weekend in June each year. In point of fact, this event is so different that it is not even an ARRL driven event. It is actually an event promoted by the Winter Field Day Association.
For those who may be interested in the rules for this event, you can read all about it at their website. Click on the Rules menu item to get to the rules and regulations for the event or download the PDF link above.
If you are interested in participating, please reach out to Frank Romeo N3PUU. His contact information is available in the Club roster, and he can be found at the Clubhouse on most Saturdays.
We hope to have a successful Winter Field Day this time out, as we did last year. That is possible only with your help and participation. Get involved!
