YOTA summer camp in the Americas

Taking a cue from IARU Region 1’s Youngsters On The Air (YOTA) annual
summer camp, the *Youth on the Air* committee in IARU Region 2 has
announced the first camp for young radio amateurs in the Americas next June

The ARRL report:

Sponsors hope the Region 2 camp, a modified version of the Region 1 camp,
will also become an annual event.

The inaugural IARU Region 2 summer camp will take place June 21 – 26 at the
National Voice of America Museum of Broadcasting in West Chester Township,
Ohio, the YOTA committee in IARU Region 2 said. The *West Chester Amateur
Radio Association* (WC8VOA) will host the event. Operating the camp will be
Electronic Applications Radio Service, Inc. (EARS), a 501(c)(3) charitable
organization dedicated to wireless technologies and activities.

According to the announcement, the camp will focus on building peer and
mentor relationships and taking amateur radio “to the next level.�
Campers will attend workshops and activities in multiple STEM-related
subjects, such as radio contesting, electronic kit building, D-Star, APRS,
satellite communication, antenna building, and radio direction finding and
orienteering. A high-altitude balloon launch is also being planned.
Campers will learn and exercise on-the-air skills at special event station
W8Y, at nearby Kings Island Amusement Park.
