Raffle Prizes donated by:

Hendricks QRP Kits

What: New England’s premiere QRP gathering – a weekend of QRP camping, BBQ eating, operating, socializing, lobster eating, giant kite flying, prize winning, all round great QRP time. See  NEQRP for pictures of  Lobstercon2007!.  A $35.00 registration fee gets you wake-up coffee & donuts ( if you wake up early enough), 2 meals on Saturday: a BBQ lunch and FRESH lobster dinner. Lobstercon lobsters are so fresh they are guaranteed to pinch you before they go into the pot (but we keep the rubber bands on 'em for your safety & protection) We also have raffle prizes, unlimited hobnobbing and construction contest. Although camping prices are the same as last year: $10 per person per night or $20 per family per night, gasoline prices are not, so it will cost you a little more to attend this year. Preregistered AND prepaid parties will receive a Picnic Table Outlet kit to build and use in the decoration of their QRP picnic table/operating bench. An impartial panel of judge(s), if they can be coerced, will judge the PTO picnic table decoration entries on some completely arbitrary basis and prizes will be awarded. 1 kit per party please...

Where: Thomas Point Beach & Campground, Brunswick Maine

When: July 11, 12 & 13, 2008 

How:         Fill out the registration form, scan it and Email it or use snail mail and send it back to QRPme to hold your spot at the lobster feast. Use Paypal, check or money order to complete the registration. See registration form for details.

See you there!   W1REX
