Record-breaking attendance in 2023, 2024, and 2025. 2026 was also super-popular - our 50th Central Ontario Hamfest!
Congratulations to our prize draw winners - We gave away an ICOM handie, seven Talkpod radios and plenty of Radioworld gift cards. We also had free anniversary cake and coffee, POTA and our VA3RAC special event station. Exclusive 50th-anniversary QSL cards and limited-edition navy T-shirts were available. All your favourite vendors were there. Thanks to our volunteers from KWARC and GARC for making this event possible, and to Noreen Irwin-Hann, VE3AQZ for representing the Hammond Museum.
See you all again in June 2027!
