The multi-media library has videos and programs that clubs can use for meeting programs. Many new PowerPoint programs are free to download.Club Callsigns
Does your club have a unique callsign? Download the forms to get a club callsign or renew the club’s existing license.License Class Search Page
This page lets prospective hams search for license classes in their area. Registered Volunteer Instructors may list classes on the web by following the link from the Volunteer Instructor Support Page http://www.arrl.org/FandES/ead/instructor/New Amateur Report
The New Amateur Report is a member’s only page that lets clubs download a list of new or recently upgraded hams. Lists can be generated from information selected by ARRL section, Division or from a list of Zip Codes. Reports can be CSV, HTML or .pdf for Avery mailing labels. Access to the New Amateur page is restricted to the club president, contact person and newsletter editor.Big Club List
The Big Club List allows you to search for active or inactive clubs in an ARRL section and also reports in many formats.Club Commission Membership Recruitment Program
Under the ARRL Club Commission Membership Recruitment Program, clubs retain $15 for each NEW membership and $2 for each renewal submitted (regular and senior memberships only). A NEW MEMBER is defined as any individual who has never been a member of ARRL or any individual who has not retained a membership for two or more calendar years prior to the application submission.Liability and Equipment Insurance for Clubs
This comprehensive policy provides coverage for lawsuits resulting from bodily injury and property damage at ARRL Affiliated Club-sponsored activities. This includes concession stands, dances, banquets, parties, auctions, raffles, picnics and meetings, to name just a few. Coverage would also apply for official Club participation, for instance participating in a community-sponsored event. Plus, in addition to the policy limits described below, this plan also pays the court and legal costs of defense for covered claims.Club Updates
Once your club is affiliated, it remains affiliated. To stay actively affiliated, you must complete and submit an Annual Report at least once a year. Your club’s status will be changed to inactive should 2 years go by without our receiving an Annual Report. Your club can return to active status at any time by simply completing and submitting an Annual Report.Updates are as simple as:
