*AARA 2022 Rayne Hamfest Information*

The Acadiana Amateur Radio Association has made the decision to postpone
our annual hamfest for 2022 and plan to return in the spring of 2023.
Please bookmark this page for further updates.
http://www.w5ddl.org/hamfest.htm

In the meantime, we ask that our friends support the numerous small 
businesses
who sell ham radio gear and accessories.  These folks are the backbone 
of our
hobby and could really use the help.

If you have hamfest related questions you may contact us at 
hamfest at w5ddl.org.
