It was a crisp morning, but it was a welcome respite from a summer in Florida that decided to overstay its welcome. Start time was 8:00 AM but as usual, that means folks were lines up at 6:30 to get the best spots. The SPARCFest at Freedom Lake Park in Pinellas Park is in its 3rd year now. This is an extension of the hamfest the club used to do at Lake Maggiore in St. Petersburg. The SPARCFest had the usual assortment of people selling treasures from their attic to yours. VE Testing was there as well as the now famous “SPARC Dogs” on the grill. As it was a cold morning, the club sold all its coffee so clearly the club treasurer has an “in with the weather”.
Attached you will find some pictures taken by various folks. If you missed it, we hope you will plan now to attend next year. It’s generally the first or second weekend in November (more to come on an exact date for next year).
