Gas and Steam<br />
Thanks for bringing the brochures to<br />
the Gas And Steam Engine Museum<br />
(AGSEM) today. I can report that PARC<br />
members were well represented and aided<br />
. me very significantly in setting up and<br />
taking down the tower/equipment as well<br />
as operating the HF station.<br />
We arrived at the site at approximately<br />
7AM and departed around 4PM.<br />
Interest by park attendees was modest<br />
but good. It would have been better ifwe<br />
were in an area that was more in the<br />
mainstream of activity. I will followup<br />
with a list of those who attended, hopefully<br />
list. WB6IQS, John.)<br />

Barbecue and Craft<br />
Fair is a Labor Day tradition<br />
that goes back nearly 30<br />
years. This great family<br />
event offers all the fun and<br />
good food ofan old fashioned<br />
country community gathering<br />
- all set under the oaks and<br />
pines at the crest of <strong>Palomar</strong><br />
Mountain. The centerpiece of<br />
the event always is the slow<br />
cooked beef barbecue meal<br />
Served with all the fixings, it's<br />
certainly one of the finest<br />
around.<br />
There's entertainment and<br />
fun scheduled all day long:<br />
dozens ofcrafters, a bake sale<br />
and huge flea market with<br />
great finds. A grand prize<br />
<strong>Palomar</strong> Mountain Volunteer Fire Department<br />
and is held at the Fire Station<br />
at S-7 and Crestline Road. It all begins<br />
at 11 a.m. and serving continues to 4<br />
p.rn, Saturday, Sept.2. Adult meals are<br />
$7, and $3.50 for kids under 12.<br />
The best part is that it's for a good<br />
cause. The PMVFD provides fire and<br />
medical rescue services for the 300 fulltime<br />
residents of <strong>Palomar</strong> Mountain as<br />
well as the 400,000 annual visitors who<br />
come here to enjoy the rugged beauty,<br />
natural environment and the worldfamous<br />
<strong>Palomar</strong> Mountain Observatory.<br />
(Ifyou go to this event, be sure to wear<br />
your PARC blue badges with your callsign -&I)<br />

Living Long(er)?<br />
In this day and age people are living<br />
longer .. and longer.<br />
.... so why not break down and renew<br />
your membership for 2-3 years instead<br />
ofhaving to do it every year.<br />
It makes LESS work for everyone,<br />
including our membership chairman,<br />
W6GNIAJ. Your thoughtfullness will be<br />
greatly appreciated.<br />
Alligator Award<br />
Over the years PARC has bad an<br />
"Alligator Award" which is handed out<br />
to members who talk longer than the<br />
repeater's time out timer. There have<br />
been several suggestions that we revive<br />
the award and again start publishing the<br />
names in the Scope of those that get<br />
"bit" by the Alligator.<br />
Will the alligator getYOIf?<br />
