Our next major event is the Tour of Saints Bicycle Tour on July 20, 2025!

We would like at least 16 club members—or more—to assist with communications. Volunteers are needed for a variety of roles: staffing one of the three rest stops, handling on-the-road communications, or supporting the riders in vehicles supplied by the event organizers. All you need is your radio and a willingness to lend a hand!

If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Chris Schulz, KC0YFX, at ctechy@yahoo.com

For many years, the St. Cloud Amateur Radio Club has proudly supported this event, providing essential communication services and ensuring the safety and coordination of riders and volunteers.

Come to our Annual Picnic on Saturday, August 30, at noon at the clubhouse! All are welcome!

Bring a dish to share! Meat and corn on the cob will be provided.

Come to our 3rd Annual Tailgate Hamfest at the clubhouse parking lot on Saturday, July 26, from 8 AM – 1 PM. Shop for great deals – or bring your own equipment to sell.

Calling for donations for the following:

– Split AC Unit
– Sliding Door (between meeting room and EOC)
– New Front Door

Donate through PayPal on this website (see sidebar) OR by cash or personal check to treasurer, Kay Welsand.
