By the way, did you get your KARS "W9AZ" coffee mug?  It's a great operating aid and collectable ham radio souvenir.

Pictured here between KARS Sec Greg, WB9STR and KARS VP Don, K9NR is Bill Williams, W9VQC.  Bill held the torch for KARS back in the 1950's and 60's, having held numerous positions within KARS including President.  Bill kept the KARS archives in his possession for many years until he passed them onto Don, K9NR just before Bill retired to 4-land in Fort Walton Beach, Florida.

All of the roads within the fairgrounds were
paved in 2000 with blacktop
after this map from the USGS was taken.
