<h2>More Than Just Great Food</h2>
Field Day is about operating, learning, mentoring, public outreach, emergency communications, and having fun with fellow hams. Sharing meals together is one of the traditions that makes the weekend special and gives everyone a chance to catch up between operating shifts.

Whether you’re planning to operate for an hour, work overnight, help with setup, or simply stop by to see what Field Day is all about, we invite you to join us for the food, fellowship, and fun.

We look forward to seeing everyone at ARRL Field Day 2026, June 27–28, at the Hudson Memorial School.

Be sure to sign up for your operating times soon—many of the most popular shifts fill quickly!  Here is the link to the operating sign-up sheet.

See you at Field Day, and don’t forget to bring your appetite! 🍔🌭📻☕
