The Galashiels and District Amateur Radio Society Rally and Open Day was held on Sunday 30th October 2022 at the Volunteer Hall, St John Street, Galashiels.
A successful day, over 200 visitors through the doors, 17 traders taking tables, and many items sold through the Bring & Buy.
Welcome back to the many familiar faces seen once again after the last few years of COVID restrictions, and some new faces too.
Thankfully the weather stayed dry during the unloading of traders vehicles and setting up, with some heavy showers just after lunchtime.

Dave KCN setting the stage displayHeavy rain shower just around lunchtime. Thankfully not at the start when we had queues of people waiting outside, or while traders were trying to load/unload their stuff.
And then it’s all over! Tables emptied, visitors and traders heading back home.
Many thanks to all club members who came along to help setting up and to help out while others had a look around the hall. Thanks to the traders for setting up a display of products for everyone to come to, the caterers for food and drinks, and thanks to all those who came from far and wide to see our rally and again making it a successful day.
