We printed lanyards to use as passes, and as a souvenir of the weekend.
The basic artwork was from something Josh found on a sticker that was prepared for the RA close down in 2017, and we used that as inspiration for the 2020 revival.

Correction: The sticker artwork was created originally for the 50th anniversary 1939 to 1989, Josh edited it to reflect the 2017 closing date and
crossed it out with 2020, making the VI3RA weekend as the "real" closing date.


The back panel was printed with QR codes that linked to google maps for visitors to find their way to Vision Australia Club Rooms to register
and then to actually be able to find Radio Australia itself. As far as I know, no-one got lost, but I never heard if they used the QR codes or not.

The Front panel was printed with the callsign and time slot for each participant.

The saturday night get together at the micro brewery was a great time, although not many turned up, those that did got to enjoy some delicious food and great company.
