Henderson Tri-Fest
RTKY1 will be participating again in the Henderson Tri-Fest. Set up will be at 6:30pm on Thursday, April 19th. The festival runs from the 20th-22nd. We will need volunteers to set-up, tear-down and work the booth to sell commissary items and raffle tickets and to educate the public about the POW/MIA issue. Please contact Stan "Heime" Diekmann to volunteer - rajoguns@sigecom.net.
