YOTA Camp ’23 Set for Canada

The third summer camp program for young radio amateurs from the Americas has been scheduled for July 16-21, 2023 at Carleton University in Ottawa, Ontario. According to the Youth on the Air (YOTA) organization, a team from the Radio Amateurs of Canada will serve as the local host for the camp. The previous two camps were held at the National Voice of America Museum of Broadcasting in Ohio.

Online applications will be accepted at <http://youthontheair.org> starting December 1 from amateurs aged 15-25 residing in North, Central or South America. A maximum of 30 campers will be accepted. Priority will be given to first-time applicants and those living outside the United States. Returning campers will serve as leaders during the camp. The YOTA organization encourages potential campers from outside Canada to start now on the process of obtaining a passport and any visas that may be necessary. More information is available on the YOTA website or from Camp Director Neil Rapp, WB9VPG <director@youthontheair.org>.
