As per tradition, we reserved a LARG table at WinterFest!
Table D3, right at room entrance, and a very good spot!
Feel free to bring your stuff, er, treasures. And if you have any big items or large loads, please let me know early, JIC?
As usual, you will want to label and oversee your stuff, although you can often share with other LARGies.
Please advise, and Thanks!

Subject: Early Registration for Clubs at Winterfest 2020
The Vienna Wireless Society (VWS) hamfest, celebrating our 44th year, will once again be held in the Gym at the Annandale Campus of the Northern Virginia Community College on Sunday, March 29, 2020. We hope your Club will again participate in our hamfest.
Early registration is now open! You can register on line here.
If you wish to snag the same table(s) as last year, and if don’t remember your 2019 table location, you can view last year’s table layout here. Please be aware that we will open general vendor registration on December 1st, so I am hoping that you will lock down table(s) before general registration opens.
Table rental prices remain the same as last year. Early bird registration price is $20 per table plus $10 per vendor attendance pass. Early bird registration closes on January 31, 2020. Starting February 1st, 2020, the table rental fee is $25.00. The indoor venue opens at 8:00 a.m.; vendors can enter for last-minute setup at 6:30 am. Of course you will also set up on Saturday, March 28th in the afternoon.
We are expanding Winterfest this year. Besides our radio license testing program, VWS is sponsoring special educational programs on Emergency Communications during Winterfest 2020. This addition will bring a new focus to our hamfest, and hopefully attract a new group of participants. Attendance last year was 500 attendees. We have increased our advertisement effort, which began in June and combined with our special educational programs, we expect to increase over last year’s record-breaking attendance level.
The files.k4lrg.org server is offline for a short while due to a localized power outage. This page will be updated when it’s back online. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Edit: It’s back online as of 11:30a Eastern.
