This award was introduced on June 6th, 2006 at 9PM EDT by Bob Morton VE3BFM (now VE3WY).

Contacts: Once per amateur band regardless of mode. Repeater contacts can be counted (no cross-band contacts).

Classes:
  1. Member - must be a member of the York Region Amateur Radio Club
  2. Non-member - any amateur not a YRARC member
Points: 1 point for each contact with a club member. A club member is a member of YRARC at the time of the QSO, even if that person is not a member at the time of application for the award. Check the 2015 list for members at the time this was posted.
