Floyd Amateur Radio Society (FARS) offers a number of functioning laptop computers by program entitled “LAPTOPS ON LOAN.” These are loaned for use by high school students of Floyd County who show interest and need by the process of application. This program was initialized by FARS president Tom King (W4VZH), who was aware of a need by area students to have laptop computers to assist in studies and to fulfill school and college pursuit obligations. Selected recipients of these computers will have use of them as long as they are active students in high school in Floyd County, with parent permission and a promise to return the computer and not sell it. It is anticipated that this program will level the playing field for students who don’t currently have use of a (laptop) computer outside of the school setting. FARS will receive applications and complete the selection process during the first part of opening semester, Fall 2013.
