On the evening of June 18th the Boston Amateur Radio Club went through a quiet revolution.
BARC is one of the older Amateur Radio Clubs still going in Eastern MA right now. For the last decade or more the club has been wonderfully run by a tight, core group of people who have done yeoman’s work navigating the organization through the honestly chaotic times of the 21st century. On June 18th these magnificently hard working folks got a bit of a much deserved break.
Holding its first meeting since their January Holiday Party – and its first meeting ever via Zoom, thanks to Phil Temples, K9HI – BARC elected the first new people to its major offices in years.
Taking over from Joe Chapman, NV1W, as Secretary, is Doc Kinne, KE1ML.
Taking over from Mark Duff, KB1EKN, as Vice President, is Morgan Johnstone, KB1ZFP.
BARC was unanimous in the gratitude it holds for the officers stepping down – they are the reason BARC continues to thrive at all! Past Vice President Mark Duff, as he stepped down, expressed appreciation that “new blood” had stepped into leadership roles.
