The purpose of the Western Colorado Amateur Radio Club, Inc. is to recruit, train and help committed Ham Radio operators carry on the tradition of amateur radio by using our network of technical resources and expertise to provide equipment, skilled operators and emergency services when called upon by local authorities in time of need to assist and protect the citizens in the communities in which we live and serve. WCARC is dedicated to community service and providing education to the general public about the history, operation, functions and benefits of the Amateur Radio Service and to develop the next generation of radio amateurs.
