SARL to host the 2018 Youngsters On The Air (YOTA) Summer Camp

The League received a positive response from Lisa Leenders, PA2LS, the IARU
Region 1 Youth WG Chairman, following the acceptance and approval of the
SARL proposal to host the 2018 YOTA Summer Camp by the Region 1 Executive
Committee.

As it will be held in the southern hemisphere, it will be the YOTA Winter
Camp!

This annual event brings together Young people from the Region 1 Member
Societies for an entire week to create, in addition to amateur radio, an
opportunity to learn all about different nationalities and cultures, foster
international friendships and goodwill as well as to learn new skills.

Work started in early November 2017, when a working group was established
to perform a realistic assessment of our ability to host the event in
August 2018 and to compile a proposal for the League Council's approval and
subsequent submission to Region 1.

The SARL and the South African YOTA Working Group are delighted with the
response and we are looking forward to hosting a successful YOTA 2018 event
as an unforgettable African experience that will be remembered for many
years to come. Dr Gary Immelman, ZS6YI, has accepted the role as patron of
the event.

The SARL President conveyed his sincere appreciation to the YOTA working
group for their successful proposal and stated that this is a golden
opportunity for the SARL and amateur radio in South Africa to make their
mark in promoting amateur radio amongst the youth, locally and in Africa,
in hosting the 2018 YOTA Winter Camp.
