The Boston Amateur Radio Club has been officially renewed as a Special Service Club by ARRL Headquarters.
“Through the work of its members, [Boston ARC] is recognized for its continued efforts on behalf of Amateur Radio and services to its community.” wrote ARRL Club Assistant Rose-Anne Lawrence, KB1DMW in a November 29, 2006 letter to BARC’s Blake Haskell, K1BTH, Eastern MA Affiliated Club Coordinator Phil Temples, K9HI, Section Manager Mike Neilsen, W1MPN, and New England Division Director Tom Frenaye, K1KI.
“Extraordinary clubs like BARC actively pursue all aspects of Amateur Radio: new ham development and training, public relations, emergency communications, school club support, technical advancement and operating activities,” commented K9HI.
