Several HODARS members gathered for lunch with the Alabama Contest Group after the Montgomery Hamfest last November. The barbecue at Country’s was delicious and the air was filled with great DX stories and fellowship.

Shown are HODARS members:

Front Row: Kim Huey, KG4CQZ, Cheryl Whitlock, AA4YL, and Darrell Penrod, K9MUG

Back Row: Don Huey, KA4NDY and Bob Schafer, KA4PKB

Great meeting  for HODARS tonight. I would like to offically welcome Michael Wegner, KI4TWB back into our membership. Also our club chairman Ken Sullivanne, W4KDS was present after a brief illness. It is great to have both of them back with us. Their great wit has been sorely missed. A very productive meeting and great fellowship.
