Member Talks
For our July 6th meeting, we will have 4 members give short 10–15-minute presentations about their astronomy experiences.
Bob Napier – Internet-Based Observatory Operation
Mark Munkacsy – T Corona Borealis
Ellsworth Starring – Observatory Construction
John Kocur – Aurora Report
Member Star Party
In addition, we invite members to bring their telescopes and/or binoculars for a good, old-fashioned star party (weather permitting, of course) to occur at the conclusion of the monthly meeting on the grounds of the observatory. Star parties are great for meeting other members, checking out other telescopes, and sharing this great hobby. If you do not have a telescope or are thinking of purchasing one, a star party is a great place to talk to telescope owners, ask questions, and take in some views from different types of scopes. We also plan to have some challenge objects to test your astronomy skills.So, join us in July for a member focused meeting on Saturday July 6th!
