The Matagorda County Amateur Radio Club will host its annual Field Day on Saturday, at Le Tulle Park in Bay City. Starting at 11 a.m., the 24-hour event showcases how local ham radio operators provide vital emergency communication when phones and internet fail. This hands-on demonstration highlights their work during storms like Hurricane Beryl, helping keep Matagorda and nearby counties connected. Visitors can see live demos, learn how radios operate, and even try transmitting themselves. The free event welcomes all ages and promotes emergency preparedness.
