P.A.R.C. Historical Facts
Here is a picture taken in 1967 at the time of the
Okanagan International Hamfest. This includes almost all the club members at
that time. The Hamfest alternated between the U.S. and Canada and at that time
was organized pretty much by Marg Frazier of Oroville and Bill Sharp (VE7DB) of
Penticton. When the site at Okanagan Falls no longer became available we
moved to Gallegar Lake and Illahie campground near Summerland. I will try
and come up with the calls of Jack Riley and Bob McArthur. By the way the first
club meeting I attended in 1961 was in the old Penticton jail on Van Horne Ave. Al Miller.
