Hamfest – 65th Annual Berryville Virginia Hamfest  – August 2 2015

 We’ve been to four or five hamfests since we moved to the Washington DC area about 14 months ago and the Berryville Virginia Hamfest held this past weekend on August 2, 2015 was the most enjoyable so far!

It was a beautiful day kept cool by all the shade trees with an amazing number of folks in the tailgating section. Here some photos and a couple of videos you might enjoy.

 

 

The Shenandoah Valley Amateur Radio Club, which hosted the event, did a great job!
