We’ll be having our “How to Use Your Telescope” class tonight, 1/4/08, at 7:30 p.m. at the Centennial Heritage Museum, even if it rains. So, if you have a telescope and want some help with it, bring it along! If you can come and help people learn to use their telescopes – we can use the help!
If it’s raining, we’ll meet inside the usual classroom for the Beginners Astronomy Class (the ground floor of the Carriage House); if it’s dry, we’ll meet in the parking area near the Carriage House. See you there!
The last BSC star party of 2007 turned out great…but started off cloudy & was cold.

HAS YOUR INTEREST IN ASTRONOMY, COME TO THE POINT WHERE, YOU’RE THINKING OF IT, MIGHT BECOME A HOBBY? The OCA is now starting a “Beginners Forum” before the monthly meetings at 7 PM-7:20 PM in the foyer. It will be a place for you to ask questions about Astronomy as a hobby, equipment, sources for viewing of objects or even questions about the club. An experienced club member will be in attendance to answer your questions.
