Early this month Horseshoe Bend NMP hosted a special stargazing event.
The visibility was excellent and I'm looking into hosting a proper star
party on site.
The astronomy events here have been increasing over the years and this
was the best yet. We counted 84 visitors and half a dozen Auburn
Astronomy Society volunteers. We couldn't do it without you. The giant
scopes, laser pointers and approachable volunteers were real crowd
pleasers.
I'm still receiving calls and emails about the program and people
looking forward to the next. The superintendent of the park was there
and she was very grateful to the volunteers as well. Special thanks to
John Tatarchuk, Scott Thompson, Brent Holman, Russell Whigham, Everett
Leonard and John Howard.
I'll be busy with work and family this month but hope to see you all in
December. Thanks again.
