Hi all, I am attempting to do something a little unconventional. I generally ask SDAA to sponsor a star party at my kids school each year. However, I have a...
Ooops, that date should be Thursday, March 2nd. Sorry for the confusion. Looking forward to hearing from you. Curt ... [Non-text portions of this message...
Hi Curt, I should actually be in town on March 2nd... I'd be able to help out. I could bring a 6" dob, and if needed my AP900 with either a 10" Newt, or two...
Paul L. and I both have "exec reviews" that day. I too would be happy to help, but we are likely to be busy at work until 6:30 or so, and would not be able to...
What does one do that the other does not? Bob ... From: "LeFevre, Paul" <lefevre@...> To: <TAC_South@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Wednesday, February 08, 2006...
Hmmm, which Paul is in charge at this place? One says he'll be there with a truckload of telescopes and the other says he's not sure he can make it. Paul L.,...
The State Park System has bought the old San Pasqual School and wants to make it an observing site esp. if there is enough local interest. It is located about...
We're both in charge, actually :) Despite you changing the date to Thursday in your e-mail, I still had Friday in my head when I replied. Paul S. is right,...
... Nothing, really -- it's just I have them mounted on a side-by-side plate for now, so it's a two-for-one deal. Great for a star party, I can have two...
Bob, Very cool. Is there any way we can "officially" register interest with the State Park system for observing at the site? A letter or something? Thanks, ...
This seems like it could be a pretty nice spot. Of course that is the day before my next grant is due :-( Do they leave it open for observing after the party...
... That is the best way. Put a bunch of smart and energetic people together in the same place and let them all run their own show. Kind of the academic...
The ranger has been very flexible and I think there would be no problem leaving the gate open for the last person out. He wants to encourage the use of the...
The good thing about that site is it is surrounded by the wild animal park and agricultural preserve. That bodes well for at least some preservation of the...
I do think there is an official way at this time but I will ask. It seems that as the word gets out there is more interest. Bob ... From: "LeFevre, Paul"...
... LOL; well, Paul L. and I are in charge of different functions here at Midway, although our two groups are starting to work more closely together. ... I...
That is outstanding in many ways for the general community as well as the local astro community. And I am only about 15 mins away! My daughter goes to BVMS,...
Just come and set up. I think they have just invited the 8th grade but all are welcome. The party is set to start at 6:30 but you can set up when ever you...
You are sending out a broad-based invitation. Can I assume that this can be sent to other schools? OPMS has a science teacher named Dave Reynolds that is a ...
That came out wrong. I meant others that are interested from that school could come. If teachers from other schools would like to see how it goes they are can ...
Hi all, A group from the TAC-Imaging list (both north and south Cal) are planning our annual Imager's Ball. Unfortunately, LSA is not available for the end of...
Folks, The Star Party is now scheduled for March 3 at the San Diego Jewish Academy. I am looking forward to seeing those of you who responded that you could...
The new release of the free Windows Real-Time Astronomy Program RTGUI+S ( Version 7, at http://www.rtgui.com ) contains many new features, including major...
Hi, Once again, I am soliciting astronomers (or would be astronomers) to help out with a star party at the San Diego Jewish Academy next Thursday night March 3...
I think the star party is on *Friday*, March 3rd, right Curt? Cheers, Paul ... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?...
Hi all, Take your pick of weather reports. Right now I am going by clear sky clock which looks great! Here is a corrected copy of the original announcement....
