The below email went to the 140+ Arizona Outlaws today. Several of the
members thought it would be good to share with CQ-Contest and N0AX as well.

To all Arizona Outlaws;
Five years ago today, June 5, 2009, email invitations began the
recruiting
for the Arizona Outlaws Contest Club. It took less than a day to attract
56 paid members and 83 members within 3 days. It grew to over 120 members
within a month.
Since then we have grown to one of the finest contest clubs in the USA.
Check out our Accomplishments, on the club webpage. Some fairly
impressive
line items there:

What a great ride it has been and more yet to come. The 60 or so members
that are continually active, pat yourself on the back. The 30 or so that
are
active now and then, many tnx. Others, see if you can be more active and
help our scores. Help is available to all.
Happy Birthday AOCC!
