Field Days

ARRL Field Day is the most popular ham radio activity held annually in the US and Canada. On the fourth weekend in June each year, more than 31,000 hams get together to practice emergency operations and communication readiness from remote locations. Field Day stations compete to make radio contacts with as many other stations as possible and invite the general public to see how amateur radio can serve in an emergency,  Amateur radio also inspires the next generation of technical leaders by providing young people with a hands-on experience in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
