Appearing at the Bloomsburg Mini Maker Faire for the First time: Ham Radio Operators!

Ham Radio Operators were some of the original “makers”. In fact, in the beginning that was the only way for a ham to get a station going…to build it from scratch! Many of the communication things we take for granted today were actually started by amateur radio operators. See what sort of things hams are building now, including a complete 2-way short wave station capable of talking many hundreds or thousands of miles using modern components and for very little cost. Come check out the cool devices we will have at the Faire!

This booth will be brought to you by the Columbia-Montour Amateur Radio Club (CMARC) which has been serving the region for over 30 years, enjoying being with others interested in the hobby and providing emergency communications when needed.

We are thrilled to have the First Lady of Fly Fishing back at the 2018 Maker Faire!  Meet Cathy Beck!


I am a fly fishing instructor and trip host. My presentation will show how fly fishing can be a lifetime sport and enjoyed at all ages. My affiliation with a worldwide travel agency as a fly fishing trip host gives me the opportunity to make a profession out of what I love to do – to share my appreciation of this natural resource.

Fly fishing is a challenge – one never stops learning and being amazed, and the reward is being able to release the fish unharmed to swim wild and free once more.

Stop by this booth for fly fishing lessons from this world-class instructor!
