Public Star Party (Alpha Ridge) 3/16/2024
(The One With Pre-Total Solar Eclipse Excitement)
Thank you to everyone who joined us last Saturday for the first public star party
of the year. We had a tremendous member turn out with around 20 telescopes
ranging from Seestars and full imaging setups to commercial visual setups and a
few home made scopes. We also can't leave out the observatory as well. The
event was well attended and we estimate a good 150 to 200 members of the public
stopped by to enjoy the experience. The clouds stayed away for the most part and
both members and public attendees had a good time.
For anyone that has not yet participated in a public event, or just could not
make last Saturday, please try to show up for the
next event. It is always nice
to see your fellow members and the public enjoys what you have to offer, no
matter what that may be.
Thanks again for all those who attended.
