Youth

STUDENT SHACK

As all of us are aware: getting young children, who will all too soon be replacing many of us, interested in amateur radio needs to be a high priority. To this end, the Stone Mountain Hamfest has, for years, brought a youth slant to our HamFest. In fact, we may have been the birthplace of the movement to get youth involved.

With the increased emphasis on STEM in the schools, we’re more involved than ever. STEM is the driving force behind our STUDENT SHACK 2021 Stone Mountain Hamfest.
