FLSPOTA 2025 will take place April 5-6, 2025 throughout Florida’s beautiful state parks.

There will be no rule changes this year.

Apologies for the backlog of posted results! I will try to get them updated as soon as I can.

FLSPOTA 2024 will take place April 6-7, 2024 throughout Florida’s beautiful state parks. 

I have updated the rules, with the bonuses being simplified. The only one now is the point bonus for each POTA station you can contact during your operation to support the event goals of encouraging folks to A) get out and operate in the parks and B) try make as many contacts as possible with stations in other Florida state parks, as well as POTA entities, stations in other states’ parks (GA, AL etc.)…basically, let’s make this a weekend to celebrate parks!

Just a reminder in case anyone missed our announcement last week: Unfortunately, Florida DEP has closed all State Parks effective March 23. It is not known when they will reopen.

As a result, Florida State Parks on the Air 2020 has been postponed until later in the year. The new weekend is TBD, but will be announced on the FLSPOTA Facebook page and https://groups.io/g/flspota
