POBox 2411 - Durham, NC 27715

CANCELED
Canceled because the facility we rent is closed due to the pandemic and likely won't reopen in time. Also, many hams are in the more vulnerable demographic and will probably want to be extra careful.

I HOPE WE'LL SEE YOU HERE NEXT YEAR!

As of May 2021, the facility is still not open to the public.

LOOKING FORWARD TO DURHAMFEST 2022!
