            Rally day begins at 9:15 AM on Saturday with the annual Dayton Youth Forum — open to all Hamvention attendees — moderated by well-known Amateur Radio educator Carole Perry, WB2MGP. The forum includes presentations from young hams covering a variety of Amateur Radio activities, topics, and technology. After lunch (on your own) Youth Rally registrants will gather in Forum Room 3 for activities led by ARRL Education and Technology Manager Steve Goodgame, K5ATA. We'll get to know each other, and we’ll explore a variety of amateur radio interests and activities. Learn about satellite communications, participate in a short sprint contest, make contact with a parachute mobile station, and other fun! Bring a 2-meter handheld radio if you have one. Youth Rally participants are also invited to attend the ARRL Collegiate Amateur Radio forum at 4 PM.
