Our Mission
I make no claim to stating this as an
“official” mission statement of
DELARA. I would guess at some
point back in our founding days
there was one articulated. But it’s
easy to track our movement, pick
up from that what the primary
direction has become. And it’s
something increasingly rare to be
appreciated!
I am sure that each club has its own
particular “flavor”… shaped by the
makeup of the membership, the
normal meetings and activities. For
DELARA, there has been a wide
variety of interests represented
from within our hobby- DX, HF,
repeaters, nets, ham TV, early
computing, now digital
communication and more. But the
great thing about DELARA is the
environment that supersedes those
parts- and that is one of personal
relationship. Friendship. A caring
about each other that goes much
further than just our mutual hobby.
Mike brought that into focus with
our daily nets, and it’s so good to
listen in the evenings even now to
hear our people connect. So from
that, I deduce our mission, the
prime motivation that makes this
club great, is simply to care for each
other. You can’t ask more than
that.
