GARS Congratulates Andrea, KG4IUM !!
From the Section Manager.. Susan
AF4FO
In case you haven't
heard the good news, it is now official that our very own ANDREA
HARTLAGE, KG4IUM, has been named as co-recipient of the esteemed
Hiram
Percy Maxim award, with the final decision being made at this past
week end's Board of Directors meeting. Andrea, a Gwinnett county
resident, is a fifteen year old extra class operator, who has been
licensed since the ripe old age of eleven. This busy young lady is a
member of the Gwinnett ARS, the Alford Memorial ARC, Gwinnett ARES,
and participates in many public service events and amateur radio
demos, especially those that are geared to youth. She has been one of
the instructors at the Richards Middle School ARC ever since its
inception, and was instrumental in getting an amateur radio club
established at Sweetwater when she was still a student there. She is
also the online youth editor for the ARRL, and was appointed as
Assistant Section Manager here in Georgia not too long ago. A cool and
calm operator who does an outstanding job as net control, she has
already received a "good operator" card from an OO in Illinois, and is
a member of the prestigious A-1 operator club. And those are but a
portion of all that she has brought to amateur radio...
As if that weren't enough, she is an active participant in many
academic activities in school, while maintaining a straight A record,
and acting as a peer counsellor to her fellow students.
Amateur radio has added a lot to her life, no doubt. But there's also
no doubt that this special young lady has brought a lot to the hobby,
too.
We're very proud of her. And she is most deserving of this award.
Congratulations, Andrea!!!!
This award will be presented at the Alford Memorial ARC hamfest in
Lawrenceville the first weekend in November.
That's it for now, folks. Just wanted to be sure that you'd heard the
good news. Until next time, this is AF4FO, signing clear. Take care of
yourselves. And each other, 73, Susan
