Join the Metro Amateur Radio Club for an International Lighthouse and Lightship Weekend event on Saturday, August 15 from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at Evanston's Grosse Point Lighthouse (2601 Sheridan Road, Evanston, IL  60201).  We'll have an amateur radio station set up and try to contact as many other lighthouses/lightships as possible.  The intent of the weekend is to increase public awareness about the importance of lighthouse/lightship preservation and of amateur radio.  Who knows...you might even talk to someone far, far away.
