You may also know that the Blue Mountains Amateur Radio Club is turning 
50 in January 2008. To commemorate this milestone in the club's history, 
a dinner will be held on Saturday the 9th of February 2008 at the Emu 
Plains Sporting and Recreation Club, Leonay Parade, Emu Plains, 
commencing at 7:30 PM. The cost is $40.00 per head (excluding drinks) 
and is non-refundable. All current and former members and their partners 
are invited to attend. This is a great opportunity to catch up on old 
times with old friends. Bookings are essential and can be made by 
contacting Daniel VK2DC via email to bmarc50 at bmarc.orgor snail mail to 
PO Box 54, Springwood NSW 2777. Full payment must be received by the 
25th of January 2008 to confirm your booking.

The ACMA has issued the Blue Mountains ARC with a special event callsign 
to commemorate the club's 50th anniversary. The callsign, VI2BMARC50, 
will be on-air for 10 days from January 18th to January 28th, 2008. Two 
attractive QSL cards have been prepared for this special event: a 
standard sized 6" x 4" card and a larger very attractive card signed by 
the current club executive. QSLs can be sent via the bureau or direct to 
the club's PO Box. There will be a cost of $5.00 for the larger card to 
cover return postage. So please give VI2BMARC50 a call and help the Blue 
Mountains ARC celebrate their 50th anniversary in January 2008.
