Introduction
SPARC began at a meeting to form an Amateur Radio Club on the Southern Mornington Peninsula held at Rosebud on the 4th June 1979.
A second meeting was held at the home of Les Brown and the inaugural fees were decided to be $2.00 for Full Membership and $1.00 for Associates.
Following meetings were held at the Rosebud Primary School where the Club name was decided upon.
The Club moved its headquarters several times before settling into our present location on the 4th July 1983 at 111 Boneo Road, near the corner of Besgrove Street, Rosebud.
Meetings
The Club meets every Thursday morning from 9.30 a.m. until 12 noon at the SPARC Clubrooms located near the corner of Boneo Road and Besgrove Street, Rosebud, adjacent to the Rosebud Community House.
