As discussed at the AGM we are making some changes to IOMARS meeting format for 2026.

1. The Scout Building meetings in Ballasalla will only take place on the 1^st and 3^rd Wednesday of each month.
2. The Creg-ny-Baa meetings will still be on the last Thursday of the month except in May and August when the dates will be changed to make way for the TT and Manx GP.
3. We will have testing nights, demonstrations and bring and buy sales at the Scout Building however talks will normally be at the Creg on the last Thursday of the month.

The last IOMARS meeting of 2025 will be on 17^th December at the Scout building, with mince pies. 

Not surprisingly no Wednesday meetings on either Christmas Eve or New Year’s Eve.

The first meeting of 2026 will be on the 7^thJanuary at the Scout Building, followed by one on the 21^st. The first Creg meeting will be on the 29^th of January.

The new 2026 committee consists of:

President Jeanie MD8JEA 

Chairman Richard GD8EXI

Hon Secretary Rob 2D0XIC

Hon Treasurer John GD0TFG

Committee members Stuart GD0OUD and Keith GD5IOM

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from the IOMARS committee

The committee have become aware that some members find it difficult to get to meetings either in Ballasalla or at the Creg-ny-Baa. If you are in this position, please contact the committee at info@IOMARS.IM and we will do our best to arrange a lift with another member.
