SJAA Friday Star Party & Laptop Request
Tomorrow at Houge Park, SJAA will host a public star party from 7:30 to 10:30 pm. There
is also a beginner class, with Rod Norden for constellation identification. This is an
excellent way to be introduced to the night sky for beginners. Come on out, bring your
telescopes, friends and families. Free and open to the public.
The SJAA is looking for a laptop with PowerPoint as a donation for the board and guest
lecturers. Contact: mark.wagner at resource-intl.com
Here's hoping for no fog,
Ken
