From the June 8th 1976 edition of the Pottstown Mercury...  As an aside, the place name "Athol" really isn't used anymore, but it still shows up on some maps. Basically it's the Amityville/Earlville area |

Basically it's the Amityville/Earlville area I wonder what ever became of that club. I remembered seeing a sign for the club on Weavertown road when I first moved up here, but it has since been removed. I think it said that they monitored channel 7. I can understand why they don't use the name "Athol" anymore. It sort of sounds like someone with a speech impediment is saying a more abrasive term.........  |

For many years there was one of their signs along 422 Eastbound, just above Riga lane on the right. There are three or four dilapidated houses there and it was in the front yard of one of them. I believe channel 7 is correct. |

Dissolved in 2011..... That's about the time the sign disappeared from Weavertown road. Interesting that it stayed incorporated as long as it did. Most 70's era CB clubs fell apart by the late 80's if not sooner. If I were to guess, I'd say the "club" was alive in name only.... |
