Star party


 

Here is the notice I sent out to the 60mm Telescope Club:

Okay everyone it is official, The 60mm Telescope Club Star Party will be from Thursday October 3rd to Sunday October 6th at Susquehannock State Park in Pennsylvania. This is a beautiful park is located along the banks of the Susquehanna river surrounded by Amish farms. Even though we are combining with the York County Star Party, the park is actually located in Lancaster County. I have been going to this park for years and although it's not Cherry Springs it does have dark skies and I have seen most all Messiers from this field with a 60. The Milky Way is naked eye.
Registration will be up soon and I'd like everyone to know there will be a $5.00 discount for all 60mm Telescope Members. I will send a link just as soon as it is up. The star party will be located on a large softball field. Camping will be right there on the field except for large RVs which must set up in the parking lot across the street. There will be a solar charging station set up for charging batteries and even a backup generator. I encourage anyone who have old astronomy equipment and would like to sell it to bring it along, I hope to have a swap meet on Saturday. If anyone would like to give a talk we would be delighted, just let me know. Hope to see you there.
