The IARU Region 1 Youth Working Group has to announce the following news.

The YOTA summer camp Croatia, which had already been postponed to 2021 last year, has to be postponed once again to 2022 due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

This difficult decision was made together with HRS officials (Croatian Amateur Radio Society) following the IARU-R1-wide COVID-19 event cancellation policy.

The IARU Region 1 secretary has been informed about this decision on Sunday, 18.04.2021. We, the IARU Region 1 Youth Working Group, will keep you updated on any news regarding upcoming in-person events.

Stay safe around the world and hope to see you again in 2022.
