Founded in 1958, the Sierra Foothills Amateur Radio Club (SFARC) of Auburn, California was founded to support and promote the Amateur Radio Service. We are a voluntary, non-profit association of licensed amateur radio operators and others who share interests in developing and promoting the knowledge and advancement of operating techniques and the technical skills related to radio communications. We accomplish these goals through mentoring new hams and practical experience in the Amateur Radio Service, participating in public safety exercises, and through emergency preparedness and international goodwill.

SFARC is headquartered in Auburn California and welcomes hams from all of Placer County and beyond including Meadow Vista, Foresthill, Grass Valley, Georgetown, Nevada City, Roseville, Rocklin, Lincoln, Granite Bay, Loomis, Newcastle, Antelope, Carmichael, Colfax, Fair Oaks, Orangevale, Citrus Heights, Sacramento, Folsom, El Dorado Hills, Placerville, Rancho Cordova, and several communities in between.

SFARC is a non-profit 501(c) organization serving Auburn, CA, and the Western Placer County communities.  SFARC is recognized by the Amateur Radio Relay League (ARRL) as a special service club for our commitment to the local community and emergency preparedness.
