Thank you to everyone who helped out our visitors last night!

---------- Forwarded message ----------

Thank you (and the entire club) very much for a fantastic evening last night. We got to see a lot of great things, including at least 4 planets, the moon, bands on Jupiter, the phase of Venus, star clusters, nebulae, the ISS, an Iridium flare, and a wide variety of equipment. They got to see how the moons of Jupiter moved from 2 weeks ago, and how the moonrise and phase had changed.

Everyone was most helpful, and Dwane took us on a nice little tour of the sky and answered every question we could come up with.

Thanks again.

I think they should give Dwane a merit badge for the amount of time they were with him,i mean it was at least an hour.Of course they had a good time,he had the largest scope there,and it seemed like they had a good time.
