Marija VK5FMAZ and I are home from our short trip away to the Fleurieu
Peninsula for the 4th year anniversary of the VK5 National & Conservation
Parks Award. Â*As always, we had a terrific time and enjoyed our stay south
of Adelaide. Â*This year we stayed for 2 nights in the homestead located
within the Deep Creek Conservation Park. Â*We can highly recommend this
accomodation.

We activated a total of 4 Conservation Parks over the weekend and made a
total of 532 QSOs. Â*This included a total of 99 Park to Park contacts.






Sadly, participation by VK5 activators was down from previous years. Â*But
it was very pleasing to see a number of interstate park activators heading
out to take advantage of the Park to Park opportunities for World Wide
Flora Fauna (WWFF). Â*We also logged numerous activators for the Summits on
the Air (SOTA) program.

Here is a summary of our activity..

Thanks to everyone who took part in the weekend, both activators and
hunters. Â*I hope everyone had as much fun as we did. Â*I will prepare some
stats about the weekend over the coming weeks and place on the VK5 Parks
Award website, Facebook page, and Yahoo group. Â*I will also place some
additional information here about each of our activations. Â* And dont
forget to send me your logs so I can upload them to the WWFF database,
Logsearch.
