+{{img_0316_s.jpg?300 }} The New Westminster Amateur Radio Club is an organization that was created to promote the exciting hobby of Amateur / Ham radio and emergency communications.
 In 1996 the NWARC was formed and is a non-profit society organized to deliver communication services during emergencies. NWARC can provide qualified communications personnel to establish ad-hoc communication links where and when they are needed. NWARC augments the community's existing communication infrastructure, providing the additional capacity that is often needed during emergencies.
