2025 Plaque Challenge

Posted on January 1 0001 by Mark Wohlschlegel • WC3W

We are trying to expand the number of plaques for the 2025 season. A sponsorship is $100 that covers the cost of the plaque plus transportation. We have done a review of our award structure as it has not been adjusted in almost 18 years. We are trying to broaden the awards. Your DX Marathon staff have recognized pockets of new awards but the only way we can get there is to have sponsors. Our sponsors make our program viable. So far we are approaching 50% of our target of 20 more plaque sponsors. Here are the generous sponsors who have indicated a willingness to step up and meet the 2025 plaque award challenge:

  1. Bill Salyers, AJ8B
  2. John Gendron, NJ4Z
  3. Steve Muenich, NA5C
  4. Paul Defelice, K9NU
  5. SEMDXA (Southeast Michigan DX Association)
  6. SWODXA (Southwest Ohio DX Association)
  7. James Cessna, KB8N- Personal
  8. James Cessna, KB8N Repeater Club

Thank you all for your generous support. Can we make another 12 in the next month or so? If you personally would like to sponsor or if your Club is interested, please contact me at wc3w@dxmarathon.com. Our desire is 20 new plaques, but if we do fall short, we will still allocate new plaques awards for each one of our new sponsors. Thank you all so much.
