Youth Day Sprint to get the youth talking

South Africa's Youth Sprint on 16 June 2008, is aimed at getting the youth talking to each other, but you can be the catalyst to make it happen.

The event will run for two hours from 10:00 - 12:00 CAT on the 40 metre band.

Set up a station in a public place or invite some young people into the shack. The exchange is a RS report and the operator's age.

The point structure is 5 points for contacts between two operators under 25 years. Only 2 points if is one of the operators is 26 and older and one point if both operators are 26 years or older.

There are some fun prizes to be won by participants under 25 years old, not only for the highest score but also on a lucky draw basis as well as a certificate for every participant under 25.

From Tuesday, visit www.sarl.org.za and click on Youth activity for details and other fun events.

Non licensed youth under 25 can also participate by operating the station of a licensed operator who has registered as an educational station. To register visit www.sarl.org.za, click on SARL forms and scroll down the list.
