PLEASE NOTE: Due to a scheduling issue with the City of Helena, we have had to CANCEL this years hamfest/tailgate. Please keep an eye out for updates here or on our social media sites. Our hamfest is in the form of a tailgate. There is no admission fee, or fee to setup a table to sell goods.

For the Helena Hamfest we will have:

•   No admission fee
•   No vendor fees (bring your own table and chairs)
•   No food (there are 3 restaurants within walking distance)
•   No VE testing (see the W4SHL website for details on the next session)
•   No door prizes
•   Free parking
•   Plenty of fresh air
•   The great outdoors
•   Sunshine (we hope)

This year, as in the past, we'll follow a value for value model. If you found value in this years Hamfest, whether from the equipment you sold, new gear you purchased, or just the fun in visiting with other hams, swing by the SCARC table and leave a donation.

Be aware that while you can arrive early, the park doesn't open until 7 am. We're scheduled to end at noon, although no one is going to kick you out if you stay later, so feel free to hang around and visit as long as you wish.
