This group is for anyone in the vicinity of Prairie Grass Observatory who is interested in astronomy. The group is open to general discussion of astronomy, telescopes, Prairie Grass Observatory, and local astronomy clubs. Notices of events at the observatory, the Wabash Valley Astronomical Society in Lafayette, and the Indiana Astronomical Society in Indianapolis, will also be posted here and are also available on the calendar. This group can also be used to arrange informal observing get-togethers by local telescope owners at Camp Cullom or elsewhere.
If you want _only_ notices of events at Prairie Grass Observatory, you may prefer our other Yahoo group at http://groups.yahoo.com/pg_obs instead.
