Special congrats go out to Stanley P. who after our April meeting passed the Technician test. Lots of things coming up in the next few months so please plan on attending the next meeting on May 4th at the Pettis County EOC located at 1511 N. Ohio in Sedalia beginning at 8:30 am.

I am going to run a Christmas Eve net at 7:30pm on Sunday night. It will give all of us the opportunity to send Christmas wishes to everyone. Hope to hear from all of you then.

Many thanks to our vendors and guests who made Sparkfest 2023 a great event. We heard from many who said they had a great time and would be back next year. Most importantly many thanks to our members who gave their all. From setup on Thursday night, loading in vendors on Friday, and of course Saturday as well until we cleaned up and locked the doors at the church. We are truly blessed to have such a outstanding membership who without their hard work and dedication Sparkfest would only be a dream. See everyone at Sparkfest 2024.
