The fundraiser was a success. Hendricks County Tourism would be happy to have us again next year, if the event is still in existence.

The repeater is doing good. Last month, the grass around it was cut.

John N9CQ talked about the 2010 Hilltop event. The details are as follows: 2m FM & SSB; 6m FM & SSB; & 80m SSB. Date & time: Saturday, August 28, 2010 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. I forget the exact site, but it's at a Boy Scout den master's house (near an old AT&T tower).

The bicycle race coming up was discussed.
