CHASING CORNWALLIS CHALLENGE

Six Special Events • One Living Legacy

HUZZA!!! The 2025 Chasing Cornwallis Challenge was an extraordinary journey honoring the decisive battles that secured American independence.

From the ingenious greased girders at Moores Creek Bridge to Morgan's brilliant double envelopment at the Cowpens, through the crucible of Guilford Courthouse and the turning point at Kings Mountain, Amateur Radio Operators across North America brought these pivotal moments back to life through six special event stations.

Each contact made wasn't just about exchanging signal reports—it was about following British Commander Lord Charles Cornwallis through his fateful campaign, preserving the stories of courage, sacrifice, and tactical brilliance that defined our nation's birth. The challenge culminated at the trenches of Yorktown, where American and French forces secured the victory that would echo through history.

We're already planning next year's commemorative events!

Mark your calendars and join us as we continue honoring the Men and Women Who Won America.

The Chasing Cornwallis Challenge continues in 2026, and we need Volunteer Net Control Stations to help bring these historic moments to life for Amateur Radio Operators around the world.

As a Volunteer NCS, you'll be at the heart of our commemorative special events—managing contacts, sharing historical context, and ensuring smooth operations during these multi-day activations. Whether you're an experienced net control or looking to step into this vital role, your participation helps preserve and share the stories that define the American Spirit.

No Volunteering experience required—just a Patriot's passion for history, amateur radio, and honoring those who secured our independence. We provide comprehensive training, historical briefings, and full support throughout each event.
