riends & Fellow Operators,



You’re invited to join clubs across the country and get on the air for the newest operating event of the year — Club Week!



Club Week Nov 1-8
The National Amateur Radio Alliance (NARA) is proud to introduce Club Week. Running November 1–8, 2025, Club Week is all about making contacts, having great conversations, and helping new operators feel more confident on the air.



While the primary goal is to contact other clubs and exchange QSL cards, this uniquely designed on-the-air event serves many additional purposes.



Encourages real conversations between operators
Provides opportunities to operate in public and engage with the community
Helps new hams overcome mic fright and build confidence.
Promotes activity across all bands and modes
Introduces new and Technician-class operators to the excitement of HF


Unlike a contest, Club Week isn’t about points or logs — it’s about participation, connection, and fun. Clubs can operate from their shack, a member’s home, a park, or any public location. It’s a relaxed, friendly event focused on making contacts, getting to know other clubs and sharing the spirit of amateur radio.



Participants are encouraged to send and respond to QSL cards, offering a great way to engage new operators and keep the tradition alive.
