The Buckeye Belles
1998 November Sweepstakes activities


This year the Belles will be participating in the ARRL November Sweepstakes at the QTH of Judy KC8BOM.

Again the old rivalry that existed between the Northern and Central Ohio participants since 1996, will be in effect once more. The point feud began when Aunt Elmira's evil twin brother kidnapped the Buckeye Belles president and demanded 10,000 SS point ransom for her release. The Belles then got the miscreant in trouble with his mother-in-law when they interrupted her sleep to deliver the ransom via telephone in the small hours of a placid Sunday morning. In response to this year's veiled challenge, which is but a deliberate continuation of al long ago settled score, Elmira's brother challenges the Belles to achieve a categorical leadership within the Ohio Section. He boastfully point out that he led the team which achieved that in last year's CW event and is already developing a strategy to claim the Great Lakes plaque this year. That may be all well and good but the for the last two years, the Northern Ohio Belles still bested him in the phone portion of the contest. This year, less us see who is the victor.....
