Founded in 1972, the SCARA has nine repeaters located throughout Sumner County with coverage throughout county and the surrounding areas, including Nashville. Our monthly meetings are held on the second Thursday of each month at the Emergency Services Center in Gallatin, TN. Anyone with an interest in amateur radio is welcome to participate.

The SCARA LUNCH is a new thing!
On Saturday, March 29th, we had our first SCARA Lunch at Jakes Southern Diner. This was the first of hopefully many to come. We enjoyed great company, good food and excellent conversations. We had some laughs, talked about the Radiosonde tracker that Brian (NG2S) brought and a few had some Meshtastic lessons.
In attendance, in no particular order, were Jon, W4JDM, Richard, WA4YQC, Brian, NG2S, Vincent, K4OZE, David, KQ4RGM, Mike, K4VVA, Steve, W4STX, Steve, KN4IHQ, Jamie, AA4K, Tom, W4UWO, and his son. Doug, KO4MKD, from the Robertson County Radio Club was kind enough to not only join us for lunch but also joined SCARA.
For those that were not able to attend we hope you will be at the next one.
The next SCARA lunch will be on April 19th, 11am, at McAlister’s Deli 1115 Nashville Pike Gallatin, TN 37066. https://www.mcalistersdeli.com/
If you have any suggestions as to where to hold future club lunches please reach out to Brian (NG2S) at macrosill2@gmail.com. We would like to move the location around the county so no one has to drive too far every time.
