A highlight of FAIRS’ visit with Helen Goncharsky was a trip to Dayton, OH for this year’s Hamvention, a large convention of ham radio operators and exhibitors. FAIRS has operated a booth there since 1993 (currently #412). They were very fortunate this year to sell nearly all of the items which Helen brought from Ukraine: hand-painted wares and Matryoshka nesting dolls. Besides fundraising, they had fun meeting-and-greeting, which is always a large part of the festivities. Members of Dayton Amateur Radio Association were happy to converse with Helen, and they awarded FAIRS a donation by the club. It is an honor for FAIRS to be recognized in this way, for several years now.
