Re: Public Star Gazing Event September 30th Thank you to those who attended
开云体育Thank you to all our volunteers last night.? I was so happy to have folks with telescope as well as folks without? telescopes who were able to help all of our new astronomers. It was a piece that we may have fallen short on in earlier events and this time I had dedicated people that I was able to call upon to support the newcomers arriving with their new scopes. Which was perfect! ? My teenage assistants have noted on more than one occasion that this event is just such a positive experience. People arrive in great spirits,? and are? genuinely thrilled? to view and learn more about the night sky.??? ? It? wasn’t quite as busy as August but I would say it was close, and the flow of people lasted much longer, from 7:00 – 11:00 pm. Considering the late breaking high cloud that developed I still can’t believe we had around? 300 or so people. We ran out of? every single handout and 150 star finders (and? we only gave? out 1-2 per family). I am so happy though that we had our bright planets , Saturn and Jupiter? appearing all evening? slipping in and out of the clouds. ? That wraps up this years’ ?RASC Public Stargazing program for 2022.? We actually had ( mostly) clear skies on all 4 scheduled events. Thank you all again for all your help and dedication to these important outreach events. ? Please let me know if there are any sidewalk evening planned in October. ? ?

Public Star Gazing Event September 30th Volunteers needed!
Hello Everyone
Just a reminder that we are having a RASC Public star gazing event on Friday night September 30th in Carp? outside the library. If you are willing to come and? set up your telescope and share the view with members of the public I would be very grateful ! You dont have to be a? Rasc member to set up a scope ( that was an old insurance myth) We had a large crowd last time of visitors and fellow astronomers looking for? both astronomical information and telescope assistance so it was great fun! ?3911 Carp Road Set up time 6:30 pm for darkness by 7:45 thanks Andrea Girones |

Salut Michel!
I'm interested but unfortunately I'm sick with a cold : ( What are the chances that we could postpone the gabfest to next Thursday Sept 22? ?Could we have a show of hands? ?I believe that Denis L. is also interested. I would add that it was very pleasant seeing some of you again at last month's gabfest. ?We were a small but lively group : ) Cheers! Pierre |
