With the first two nights combined we had a total of 37 people attend. We are looking forward to a good turn out for future meetings and to be able to continue.

On February 24th Bob Spotz and Eric Sandberg talked about Antarctica and we watched a video and got to look at the required apparel for a trip to Antarctica. After that we made star finders and learned how to use them. We ended the night with a tour of the 40 inch telescope given by Richard Dreiser.
