Goose Creek Mayor Michael Heitzler signed a proclamation June 13 at City Hall announcing June 20-26 as Amateur Radio Week in the City of Goose Creek.

The Mayor thanked local amateur radio operators for providing radio communication for the city at numerous local events. Mayor Heitzler was joined at the signing by Amateur Radio enthusiasts Peggy Reese (amateur radio call sign W4ZBR), Jay Clark (W4MGR), Tom Lufkin (W4DAX), Steve Lamendola (KE4THX), Beverly Boyd (W3BRB), David Merritts (AE4ZR) and Ken Curtis (KM4TKL).
