Get ready to operate!!
Come for the food, a chance to visit with friends old

open spaces of Tartan Park in Lake Elmo, Minnesota.
Join us for an enjoyable weekend June 23-24, 2012.
Non-Hams are welcome to come out and watch
emergency communications in action, and actually take
part by getting on the air while under the supervision
and guidance of a licensed Radio Amateur.
We are looking for volunteers to operate, setup and take down.

The St. Paul Radio Club serves the Minneapolis/St. Paul area of Central Minnesota and Western Wisconsin. Radio Amateur enthusiasts and their friends are encouraged to attend our monthly meetings and other events. You do not need to be a member to attend.
Unless otherwise noted Monthly Meetings will be held at the University of St. Thomas Campus, Murray-Herrick Campus Center (MHCC), Room 155.
Please follow the parking rules noted below. Violators may be ticketed!
Socializing and mini hamfest begins at 7:00 P.M. Meeting starts at 7:30 P.M.
Directions to Meeting: Take the Cretin-Vandalia exit from I94 and take Cretin Avenue six blocks south to the St. Thomas campus. Murray-Herrick Campus Center (MHCC), site of the meeting is off of Cleveland Ave. South, which is two blocks east of Cretin. Enter the parking lot from Cleveland Ave. South, between Ashland and Portland Avenues. Going south on Cleveland, the entrance to the parking lot is at the bottom of a hill. Not much of a hill, but it’s helpful to know about it. Then turn right (west) into the parking lot. Pay attention to restricted/enforced parking spots. Tickets will be issued to violators. STU parking rules are not enforced after 1800 with the exception of marked slots and parking meters which are enforced 24/7 and on street parking rules enforced by the City of St. Paul, so the early birds get the best spots.
The MAP on the Directions page now shows the best parking in Lot G Room 155 is thru the door to the west to MHCC.
