I also made my first posting to the Montpelier Front Porch Forum. It read:
The Central Vermont Amateur Radio Club invites you to join them for the
American Radio Relay League 2017 Field Day. Every year on the fourth weekend in
June, Radio Amateurs (sometimes called "Hams") from all over the world
transport themselves and their radios off the Grid to simulate emergency
conditions. This year, the Central Vermont Amateur Radio Club invites you to
join them and see what the excitement is all about. We will be setting up at
the Barre Town Middle and Elementary School, Barre Recreation Complex, 70
Websterville Road, Barre Vermont--signs will point the way. Visitors are
welcome from 2 PM Saturday June 24 until 2 PM Sunday June 25. Alan

Here is what I posted to the Barre Town Front Porch Forum. This also be
visible in some of the adjacent FPF members.
I posted it as an event rather than an announcement so that it would show up on
the calendar.
"ARRL Field Day is the most popular on-the-air radio event held annually in
North America. On the fourth full weekend in June, more than 35,000 radio
amateurs gather with their clubs to operate from remote location as an exercise
in emergency communications.
"Come visit us at the Barre Recreation Complex behind the Barre Town Middle &
Elementary School at 70 Websterville Road. We'll demonstrate how we use radio
to talk across the continent, teach you about amateur "ham" radio, demonstrate
radio communications through satellites in orbit, and much more! Free
admission. All are welcome."
