Radio clubs are the backbone of a healthy and active ham radio community. Most active clubs produce a monthly newsletter to inform members of club activities and ham radio events. We would like to acknowledge the dedication and hard work of those radio club newsletter editors with this Club Newsletter Award.
The top three winners will receive a digital sticker (JPEG image) that can be used in their newsletter for the next 12 months showing that they are the #1, #2, or #3 best club newsletter in New England for the period September 1, 2025, through August 31, 2026.
Last year’s winners were not eligible to compete this year:
- #1 – Hampden County Radio Association from western MA
- #2 – Billerica Amateur Radio Society from eastern MA
- #3 – Blackstone Valley Amateur Radio Club from Rhode Island
The 2025 winning clubs will be acknowledged at the ARRL Club Track at 12 noon in the Princess Room / E9 at HamXposition on Friday, August 22, 2025. They are:
- #1 — Cape Ann (Gloucester, MA) ARA “CAARA News”
