Field Day 2026

June 26, 27 & 28 - Washoe Lake State Park Equestrian Area

What is Field Day?

On the 4th weekend of June each year, Amateur Operators get on the air and show off their operating skills, equipment setup, practice of emergency response capabilities and of course to display to the public what amateur radio can do. The public is invited to attend along with our fellow SNARS members.
