The Willits Amateur Radio Society (WARS) and McARCS are jointly holding a Field Day event in inland Mendocino County, at the Baechtel Grove Middle School in Willits. The event takes place from 11 AM on Saturday, June 28th to 11 AM on Sunday, June 29th.

Directions:

• Heading south: Go past the Highway 20 intersection. Immediately after the Willits arch and railroad tracks, turn right onto Walnut St. Turn left onto Magnolia St (2nd left).
• Heading north: After passing Burger King, the road will curve to the left. Turn left onto Walnut St (if you cross the railroad tracks, you've gone too far). Turn left onto Magnolia St (2nd left).

Parking is located at the corner of Walnut and Magnolia. The event is past the parking area, under the trees.

For those that are interested, a pre-event planning meeting will be held at 6 PM on Thursday, June 19th.

For those looking for a Field Day event on the coast, there is one located in the Russian Gulch State park just south of Caspar. Head east on county road 409 for about two miles until you reach the horse corrals. There will be signage along the way. Setup begins on Thursday.

On Saturday, June 21st, a test session was held in Lakeport. Of the three people that tested, one earned their technician-class license and one upgraded to general-class.
