==Howdy from the office of the treasurer!== 


* Playing radio has always been a hobby.  I first started with a set of walkie-talkies, and later moved into the ugly 11-meter band.  In 1998, flooding occured in the Ft.Collins and Loveland Colorado areas. I was able to experience an amateur station in the high school gym as part of a Red Cross shelter.  I was able to meet several hams during this time.  I liked the professionalism that the operators exhibited.  I like the idea of being able to communitate when all other forms of communications quit responding.

* I was able to take classes put on by the Loveland Repeater association.  I took the tests and secured my technician license.
     
* I moved to Laramie, WY for the college experience.  While attending the University of Wyoming, I was elected to the treasurer position for the University Amateur Radio Club.  During this time I was able to attend several Field Day events,  and found I really enjoyed this aspect of amateur radio.
    
* After graduating from UW with a business degree, I moved to Casper to start life in the working world.  The Casper Amateur Radio Club happened to be looking for a treasurer at that time.  I volunteered for the job before I got elected for something else...
