Our meetings take place at the Salvation Army Emergency Disaster Services building located at 726 S Kentucky, Joplin, MO 64801, directly behind the Salvation Army Thrift Store. This is a great opportunity to get involved, learn about emergency communication protocols, and connect with fellow radio enthusiasts.
