Notes:
We are star gazing at Tom Bennett’s place thus this is a private star party for members only.

Star Party Etiquette:
As with all star parties, please observe standard star party etiquette. Some tips: try to arrive and set up before dark; use no white light – use red filtered flashlights wherever possible – minimize white light from the auto door and dome lights; if you arrive late or plan to leave early, take care to approach and park so your headlights or backup lights do not shine on other participants; if you leave early or must use white light, first give a warning so observers or astrophotographers can compensate; please ask before handling other participant’s telescope equipment. Most importantly, be prepared to relax and enjoy good company under the night sky.

    The 24″ dob has been set up next to the parking area in the back since this area is somewhat sheltered from the east wind by the house. The normal setup area is catching the full force of the wind. The back area can park 3-4 vehicles – others can park on the side of the driveway. Dress warm!
