The W5 Weekend

This social event is held every year during March or April and is the first FOC social event of the year.  It is open to members and their guests.

----

The 2023 W5FOC Weekend gathering will be held April 27-April 30 in Santa Fe, NM. 

This will be the 3rd time the weekend has been held here. Our previous weekend was in 2018, photos can be found at:

Unlike previous W5FOC weekends, we decided to try an alternate approach where attendees can make their own reservations at any hotel. The registration fee will be set after a meeting with a caterer on February 6th. Please visit our website which should answer most of your questions, but if not contact John K1JD at johnk1jd@comcast.net or cell (505)-469-4697. The website includes confirmed attendees as they come in and will be updated on a regular basis:
