(updated 4/5/2021)\n\nMoon Phase: 2 days after New Moon \n\n\nSunset: 8:0 0 pm\n\nLocation:\nNelson group camp at Cedar Flats\n\nWeather:\n\n\n\n\n\ n\nClear Sky Chart:\n\n\nTips for First Timer:\n\nFor those of you who hav e never been to Grandview\, here are some tips to help prepare for the tr ip:\n\nWhile the star party IS scheduled for Friday night through Sunday m orning\, some members do head up a day or two earlier. Do not worry if you do not have a telescope. There will be many 'scopes there and we enjoy sh aring! (We often get visitors from the campground - it's always a pleasur e to show the sights to a newcomer!)\n\nThe Cedar Flat Campground is loc ated at about 7373 Ft elevation - be prepared for temperatures that range from very warm in the day to quite cold at night. The site can have gusty winds at times - especially in the afternoon. During the summer months\, i t is not too uncommon to get an occasional thunderstorm in the afternoon. Don't forget the sunscreen\, either - at elevation\, you will burn much mo re quickly. This is a DRY SITE (dry and dusty!) - bring plenty of water - the closest water or other supplies is located about 20 miles down the h ill in Big Pine. The campground facilities are limited to vault toilets - campsites have picnic tables and fire rings.\n\nMeal Planning:\n\nSaturda y Morning we do coordinate a group breakfast - bring something to contrib ute to the potluck if you'd like.  Plates\, Glasses\, and Flatware are a lways needed.\n\nSaturday Evening Dinner Pizza or Rubs (the club will be buying the Pizza or Ribs) and Pot Luck or BYOF. Please bring something t o add to the dinner such as Salad &\; Dressing\, Bread or Rolls\, Drin ks\, Dessert\, etc.\n\nSunday Morning we break camp and go to the coffee shop in Pig Pine for breakfast.\n\nStar Party Etiquette\nAs with all sta r parties\, please be courteous of other participants and observe standar d star party etiquette. Here are some tips: Club members\nenjoy talking an d showing the sights\; just be sure to ask before handling any telescope e quipment. White light is of particular concern\, as it ruins dark-adapted vision\; taking up to 40 minutes for eyesight to fully recover. If possibl e\, please arrive before dark.

Do not worry if you do n ot have a telescope. There will be many scopes there and we enjoy sharing! (We often get visitors from the campground - it's always a pleasure to sh ow the sights to a newcomer!)\n\nThe Cedar Flat Campground is located at about 7373 Ft elevation - be prepared for temperatures that range from ve ry warm during the day to quite cold at night. The site can have gusty win ds at times - especially in the afternoon. During the summer months\, it i s not too uncommon to get an occasional thunderstorm in the afternoon. Don 't forget the sunscreen\, either - at elevation\, you will burn much more quickly. This is a DRY SITE (dry and dusty!) - bring plenty of water - th e closest water or other supplies is located about 20 miles down the hill in Big Pine. The campground facilities are limited to vault toilets - camp sites have picnic tables and fire rings.\n\nMeal Planning:\n\nSaturday Mo rning we do coordinate a group breakfast - bring something to contribute to the potluck if you'd like.  Plates\, Glasses\, and Flatware are alway s needed.\n\nSaturday Evening Dinner: Pizza and Pot Luck or BYOF. Please bring something to add to the dinner such as Salad &\; Dressing\, Brea d or Rolls\, Drinks\, Dessert\, etc.\n\nSunday Morning we break camp and sometimes go to the coffee shop in Pig Pine for breakfast.\n\nStar Party E tiquette\nAs with all star parties\, please be courteous to other particip ants and observe standard star party etiquette. Here are some tips: Club m embers\nenjoy talking and showing the sights\; just be sure to ask before handling any telescope equipment. White light is of particular concern\, a s it ruins dark-adapted vision\; taking up to 40 minutes for eyesight to f ully recover. If possible\, please arrive before dark. If you do arrive la te or plan to leave early\, please ensure that headlights or reverse light s do not shine on participants\; use parking lights while nearby and park so it's easy to leave without backing up. If possible\, disable or shield car door and dome lights. Use only red diode or red-filtered flashlights\; red light preserves dark-adapted eyesight. Most\nimportantly\, be prepare d to relax and enjoy good company under the night sky.\n\nAdditional Mater ials:\n\nOriginal Map ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://sbvaa.org/wp-content/uploads/images/Gran dview-Fall-2011.jpg CATEGORIES:Star Party LOCATION:Grandview - Cedar Flats\, Cedar Flat Group Camps\, CA-168\, Big Pi ne\, CA\, 93513\, United States GEO:37.2773401;-118.15242639999997 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Cedar Flat Group Camps\, CA -168\, Big Pine\, CA\, 93513\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Gr andview - Cedar Flats:geo:37.2773401,-118.15242639999997 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:257@sbvaa.org DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230617T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230617T230000 DTSTAMP:20241126T222130Z URL:https://sbvaa.org/events/2023-june-star-party/ SUMMARY:June Star Party (Bennett) DESCRIPTION:Tom Lawson has sent an email with the actual address of Tom Ben nett's place.  The address listed here is downtown Banning.  Please refe r to Tom's email for the star party details and signup here to inform memb ers that you are going.\n\nMoon Phase:  New Moon \n\n\nSunset: 8:00 pm\n \nWeather:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClear Sky Chart:\n\n\nStar Party Etiquette:\nAs wi th all star parties\, please observe standard star party etiquette.

Do not worry if you do not have a tel escope. There will be many scopes there and we enjoy sharing! (We often ge t visitors from the campground - it's always a pleasure to show the sights to a newcomer!)\n\nThe Cedar Flat Campground is located at about 7373 F t elevation - be prepared for temperatures that range from very warm durin g the day to quite cold at night. The site can have gusty winds at times - especially in the afternoon. During the summer months\, it is not too unc ommon to get an occasional thunderstorm in the afternoon. Don't forget the sunscreen\, either - at elevation\, you will burn much more quickly. This is a DRY SITE (dry and dusty!) - bring plenty of water - the closest wat er or other supplies is located about 20 miles down the hill in Big Pine. The campground facilities are limited to vault toilets - campsites have pi cnic tables and fire rings.\n\nMeal Planning:\n\nSaturday Morning we do c oordinate a group breakfast - bring something to contribute to the potluc k if you'd like.  Plates\, Glasses\, and Flatware are always needed.\n\n Saturday Evening Dinner: Pizza and Pot Luck or BYOF. Please bring somethi ng to add to the dinner such as Salad &\; Dressing\, Bread or Rolls\, Drinks\, Dessert\, etc.\n\nSunday Morning we break camp and sometimes go to the coffee shop in Pig Pine for breakfast.\n\nStar Party Etiquette\nAs with all star parties\, please be courteous to other participants and obse rve standard star party etiquette. Here are some tips: Club members\nenjoy talking and showing the sights\; just be sure to ask before handling any telescope equipment. White light is of particular concern\, as it ruins da rk-adapted vision\; taking up to 40 minutes for eyesight to fully recover. If possible\, please arrive before dark. If you do arrive late or plan to leave early\, please ensure that headlights or reverse lights do not shin e on participants\; use parking lights while nearby and park so it's easy to leave without backing up. If possible\, disable or shield car door and dome lights. Use only red diode or red-filtered flashlights\; red light pr eserves dark-adapted eyesight. Most\nimportantly\, be prepared to relax an d enjoy good company under the night sky.\n\nAdditional Materials:\n\nOrig inal Map ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://sbvaa.org/wp-content/uploads/images/Gran dview-Fall-2011.jpg CATEGORIES:Star Party LOCATION:Grandview - Cedar Flats\, Cedar Flat Group Camps\, CA-168\, Big Pi ne\, CA\, 93513\, United States GEO:37.2773401;-118.15242639999997 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Cedar Flat Group Camps\, CA -168\, Big Pine\, CA\, 93513\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Gr andview - Cedar Flats:geo:37.2773401,-118.15242639999997 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:262@sbvaa.org DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230916T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230916T230000 DTSTAMP:20241126T221952Z URL:https://sbvaa.org/events/2023-september-star-party-bennett/ SUMMARY:September Star Party (Bennett) DESCRIPTION:Please refer to Tom's email for the star party details and sign up here to inform members that you are going.\n\nMoon Phase:  2 days aft er New Moon \n\n\nSunset: 6:54 pm\n\nWeather:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClear Sky Char t:\n\n\nStar Party Etiquette:\nAs with all star parties\, please observe s tandard star party etiquette.

Do not worry if you do not have a telescope. There will be many scopes there and we enjoy sharing! (We often get visitors from the campgr ound - it's always a pleasure to show the sights to a newcomer!)\n\nThe C edar Flat Campground is located at about 7373 Ft elevation - be prepared for temperatures that range from very warm during the day to quite cold at night. The site can have gusty winds at times - especially in the afterno on. During the summer months\, it is not too uncommon to get an occasional thunderstorm in the afternoon. Don't forget the sunscreen\, either - at e levation\, you will burn much more quickly. This is a DRY SITE (dry and du sty!) - bring plenty of water - the closest water or other supplies is lo cated about 20 miles down the hill in Big Pine. The campground facilities are limited to vault toilets - campsites have picnic tables and fire ring s.\n\nMeal Planning:\n\nSaturday Morning we do coordinate a group breakfas t - bring something to contribute to the potluck if you'd like.  Plates \, Glasses\, and Flatware are always needed.\n\nSaturday Evening Dinner: P izza and Pot Luck or BYOF. Please bring something to add to the dinner su ch as Salad &\; Dressing\, Bread or Rolls\, Drinks\, Dessert\, etc.\n \nSunday Morning we break camp and sometimes go to the coffee shop in Pig Pine for breakfast.\n\nStar Party Etiquette\nAs with all star parties\, pl ease be courteous to other participants and observe standard star party et iquette. Here are some tips: Club members\nenjoy talking and showing the s ights\; just be sure to ask before handling any telescope equipment. White light is of particular concern\, as it ruins dark-adapted vision\; taking up to 40 minutes for eyesight to fully recover. If possible\, please arri ve before dark. If you do arrive late or plan to leave early\, please ensu re that headlights or reverse lights do not shine on participants\; use pa rking lights while nearby and park so it's easy to leave without backing u p. If possible\, disable or shield car door and dome lights. Use only red diode or red-filtered flashlights\; red light preserves dark-adapted eyesi ght. Most\nimportantly\, be prepared to relax and enjoy good company under the night sky.\n\nAdditional Materials:\n\nOriginal Map ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://sbvaa.org/wp-content/uploads/images/Gran dview-Fall-2011.jpg CATEGORIES:Star Party LOCATION:Grandview - Cedar Flats\, Cedar Flat Group Camps\, CA-168\, Big Pi ne\, CA\, 93513\, United States GEO:37.2773401;-118.15242639999997 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Cedar Flat Group Camps\, CA -168\, Big Pine\, CA\, 93513\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Gr andview - Cedar Flats:geo:37.2773401,-118.15242639999997 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:283@sbvaa.org DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240608T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240608T230000 DTSTAMP:20241126T221316Z URL:https://sbvaa.org/events/2024-june-star-party-bennett/ SUMMARY:June Star Party (Bennett) DESCRIPTION:Tom Lawson has sent an email with the actual address of Tom Ben nett's place.  The address listed here is downtown Banning.  Please refe r to Tom's email for the star party details and signup here to inform memb ers that you are going.\n\nMoon Phase:  2 days after New Moon \n\n\nSuns et: 7:57 pm\n\nWeather:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClear Sky Chart:\n\n\nStar Party Etiq uette:\nAs with all star parties\, please observe standard star party etiq uette.

Do not worry if you do not have a telescope. There will be many scopes th ere and we enjoy sharing! (We often get visitors from the campground - it' s always a pleasure to show the sights to a newcomer!)\n\nThe Cedar Flat Campground is located at about 7373 Ft elevation - be prepared for temper atures that range from very warm during the day to quite cold at night. Th e site can have gusty winds at times - especially in the afternoon. During the summer months\, it is not too uncommon to get an occasional thunderst orm in the afternoon. Don't forget the sunscreen\, either - at elevation\, you will burn much more quickly. This is a DRY SITE (dry and dusty!) - br ing plenty of water - the closest water or other supplies is located abou t 20 miles down the hill in Big Pine. The campground facilities are limite d to vault toilets - campsites have picnic tables and fire rings.\n\nMeal Planning:\n\nSaturday Morning we do coordinate a group breakfast - bring something to contribute to the potluck if you'd like.  Plates\, Glasses \, and Flatware are always needed.\n\nSaturday Evening Dinner: Pizza and  Pot Luck or BYOF. Please bring something to add to the dinner such as Sal ad &\; Dressing\, Bread or Rolls\, Drinks\, Dessert\, etc.\n\nSunday M orning we break camp and sometimes go to the coffee shop in Pig Pine for b reakfast.\n\nStar Party Etiquette\nAs with all star parties\, please be co urteous to other participants and observe standard star party etiquette. H ere are some tips: Club members\nenjoy talking and showing the sights\; ju st be sure to ask before handling any telescope equipment. White light is of particular concern\, as it ruins dark-adapted vision\; taking up to 40 minutes for eyesight to fully recover. If possible\, please arrive before dark. If you do arrive late or plan to leave early\, please ensure that he adlights or reverse lights do not shine on participants\; use parking ligh ts while nearby and park so it's easy to leave without backing up. If poss ible\, disable or shield car door and dome lights. Use only red diode or r ed-filtered flashlights\; red light preserves dark-adapted eyesight. Most\ nimportantly\, be prepared to relax and enjoy good company under the night sky.\n\nAdditional Materials:\n\nOriginal Map ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://sbvaa.org/wp-content/uploads/images/Gran dview-Fall-2011.jpg CATEGORIES:Star Party LOCATION:Grandview - Cedar Flats\, Cedar Flat Group Camps\, CA-168\, Big Pi ne\, CA\, 93513\, United States GEO:37.2773401;-118.15242639999997 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Cedar Flat Group Camps\, CA -168\, Big Pine\, CA\, 93513\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Gr andview - Cedar Flats:geo:37.2773401,-118.15242639999997 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:299@sbvaa.org DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240907T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240907T230000 DTSTAMP:20241126T221129Z URL:https://sbvaa.org/events/2024-september-star-party-bennett/ SUMMARY:September Star Party (Bennett) DESCRIPTION:Please refer to Tom's email for the star party details and sign up here to inform members that you are going.\n\nMoon Phase:  5 days af ter New Moon \n\n\nSunset: 7:04 pm\n\nWeather:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClear Sky Cha rt:\n\n\nStar Party Etiquette:\nAs with all star parties\, please observe standard star party etiquette.

Do not worry if you do not have a telescope. There will be many sco pes there and we enjoy sharing! (We often get visitors from the campground - it's always a pleasure to show the sights to a newcomer!)\n\nThe Cedar Flat Campground is located at about 7373 Ft elevation - be prepared for temperatures that range from very warm during the day to quite cold at nig ht. The site can have gusty winds at times - especially in the afternoon. During the summer months\, it is not too uncommon to get an occasional thu nderstorm in the afternoon. Don't forget the sunscreen\, either - at eleva tion\, you will burn much more quickly. This is a DRY SITE (dry and dusty! ) - bring plenty of water - the closest water or other supplies is locate d about 20 miles down the hill in Big Pine. The campground facilities are limited to vault toilets - campsites have picnic tables and fire rings.\n \nMeal Planning:\n\nSaturday Morning we do coordinate a group breakfast - bring something to contribute to the potluck if you'd like.  Plates\, G lasses\, and Flatware are always needed.\n\nSaturday Evening Dinner: Pizza and Pot Luck or BYOF. Please bring something to add to the dinner such  as Salad &\; Dressing\, Bread or Rolls\, Drinks\, Dessert\, etc.\n\nSu nday Morning we break camp and sometimes go to the coffee shop in Pig Pine for breakfast.\n\nStar Party Etiquette\nAs with all star parties\, please be courteous to other participants and observe standard star party etique tte. Here are some tips: Club members\nenjoy talking and showing the sight s\; just be sure to ask before handling any telescope equipment. White lig ht is of particular concern\, as it ruins dark-adapted vision\; taking up to 40 minutes for eyesight to fully recover. If possible\, please arrive b efore dark. If you do arrive late or plan to leave early\, please ensure t hat headlights or reverse lights do not shine on participants\; use parkin g lights while nearby and park so it's easy to leave without backing up. I f possible\, disable or shield car door and dome lights. Use only red diod e or red-filtered flashlights\; red light preserves dark-adapted eyesight. Most\nimportantly\, be prepared to relax and enjoy good company under the night sky.\n\nAdditional Materials:\n\nOriginal Map ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://sbvaa.org/wp-content/uploads/images/Gran dview-Fall-2011.jpg CATEGORIES:Star Party LOCATION:Grandview - Cedar Flats\, Cedar Flat Group Camps\, CA-168\, Big Pi ne\, CA\, 93513\, United States GEO:37.2773401;-118.15242639999997 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Cedar Flat Group Camps\, CA -168\, Big Pine\, CA\, 93513\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Gr andview - Cedar Flats:geo:37.2773401,-118.15242639999997 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:352@sbvaa.org DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250628T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250628T220000 DTSTAMP:20251231T050316Z URL:https://sbvaa.org/events/2025-outreach-oak-glen-2/ SUMMARY:Outreach - Oak Glen DESCRIPTION:\n\nSetup in the parking lot to the right at Los Rios Rancho.\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMoon:  3 days after the New Moon \n\n\nSunset: 7: 59 pm\n\nWeather:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClear Sky Chart:\n\n\nStar Party Etiquette: \n\nAs with all star parties\, please observe standard star party etiquett e.

Do not worry if you do not have a telescope. There will be many scopes there and we enjoy sharing! (We often get visitors from the campgr ound - it's always a pleasure to show the sights to a newcomer!)\n\nThe C edar Flat Campground is located at about 7373 Ft elevation - be prepared for temperatures that range from very warm during the day to quite cold at night. The site can have gusty winds at times - especially in the afterno on. During the summer months\, it is not too uncommon to get an occasional thunderstorm in the afternoon. Don't forget the sunscreen\, either - at e levation\, you will burn much more quickly. This is a DRY SITE (dry and du sty!) - bring plenty of water - the closest water or other supplies is lo cated about 20 miles down the hill in Big Pine. The campground facilities are limited to vault toilets - campsites have picnic tables and fire ring s.\n\nMeal Planning:\n\nSaturday Morning we do coordinate a group breakfas t - bring something to contribute to the potluck if you'd like.  Plates \, Glasses\, and Flatware are always needed.\n\nSaturday Evening Dinner: P izza and Pot Luck or BYOF. Please bring something to add to the dinner su ch as Salad &\; Dressing\, Bread or Rolls\, Drinks\, Dessert\, etc.\n \nSunday Morning we break camp and sometimes go to the coffee shop in Pig Pine for breakfast.\n\nStar Party Etiquette\nAs with all star parties\, pl ease be courteous to other participants and observe standard star party et iquette. Here are some tips: Club members\nenjoy talking and showing the s ights\; just be sure to ask before handling any telescope equipment. White light is of particular concern\, as it ruins dark-adapted vision\; taking up to 40 minutes for eyesight to fully recover. If possible\, please arri ve before dark. If you do arrive late or plan to leave early\, please ensu re that headlights or reverse lights do not shine on participants\; use pa rking lights while nearby and park so it's easy to leave without backing u p. If possible\, disable or shield car door and dome lights. Use only red diode or red-filtered flashlights\; red light preserves dark-adapted eyesi ght. Most\nimportantly\, be prepared to relax and enjoy good company under the night sky.\n\nAdditional Materials:\n\nOriginal Map ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://sbvaa.org/wp-content/uploads/images/Gran dview-Fall-2011.jpg CATEGORIES:Star Party LOCATION:Grandview - Cedar Flats\, Cedar Flat Group Camps\, CA-168\, Big Pi ne\, CA\, 93513\, United States GEO:37.2773401;-118.15242639999997 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Cedar Flat Group Camps\, CA -168\, Big Pine\, CA\, 93513\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Gr andview - Cedar Flats:geo:37.2773401,-118.15242639999997 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:377@sbvaa.org DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20260613T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20260613T230000 DTSTAMP:20251231T001951Z URL:https://sbvaa.org/events/2026-june-star-party-bennett/ SUMMARY:June Star Party (Bennett) DESCRIPTION:Tom Lawson has sent an email with the actual address of Tom Ben nett's place.  The address listed here is downtown Banning.  Please refe r to Tom's email for the star party details and signup here to inform memb ers that you are going.\n\nMoon Phase:  1 day before New Moon \n\n\nSuns et: 7:59 pm\n\nWeather:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClear Sky Chart:\n\n\nStar Party Etiq uette:\nAs with all star parties\, please observe standard star party etiq uette.

Do not worry if you do not have a telescope. There will be many scopes there and we enjoy sharing! (We often get visitors from the campground - it's al ways a pleasure to show the sights to a newcomer!)\n\nThe Cedar Flat Camp ground is located at about 7373 Ft elevation - be prepared for temperatur es that range from very warm during the day to quite cold at night. The si te can have gusty winds at times - especially in the afternoon. During the summer months\, it is not too uncommon to get an occasional thunderstorm in the afternoon. Don't forget the sunscreen\, either - at elevation\, you will burn much more quickly. This is a DRY SITE (dry and dusty!) - bring  plenty of water - the closest water or other supplies is located about 2 0 miles down the hill in Big Pine. The campground facilities are limited t o vault toilets - campsites have picnic tables and fire rings.\n\nMeal Pl anning:\n\nSaturday Morning we do coordinate a group breakfast - bring som ething to contribute to the potluck if you'd like.  Plates\, Glasses\, and Flatware are always needed.\n\nSaturday Evening Dinner: Pizza and Pot Luck or BYOF. Please bring something to add to the dinner such as Salad &\; Dressing\, Bread or Rolls\, Drinks\, Dessert\, etc.\n\nSunday Morn ing we break camp and sometimes go to the coffee shop in Pig Pine for brea kfast.\n\nStar Party Etiquette\nAs with all star parties\, please be court eous to other participants and observe standard star party etiquette. Here are some tips: Club members\nenjoy talking and showing the sights\; just be sure to ask before handling any telescope equipment. White light is of particular concern\, as it ruins dark-adapted vision\; taking up to 40 min utes for eyesight to fully recover. If possible\, please arrive before dar k. If you do arrive late or plan to leave early\, please ensure that headl ights or reverse lights do not shine on participants\; use parking lights while nearby and park so it's easy to leave without backing up. If possibl e\, disable or shield car door and dome lights. Use only red diode or red- filtered flashlights\; red light preserves dark-adapted eyesight. Most\nim portantly\, be prepared to relax and enjoy good company under the night sk y.\n\nAdditional Materials:\n\nOriginal Map ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://sbvaa.org/wp-content/uploads/images/Gran dview-Fall-2011.jpg CATEGORIES:Star Party LOCATION:Grandview - Cedar Flats\, Cedar Flat Group Camps\, CA-168\, Big Pi ne\, CA\, 93513\, United States GEO:37.2773401;-118.15242639999997 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Cedar Flat Group Camps\, CA -168\, Big Pine\, CA\, 93513\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Gr andview - Cedar Flats:geo:37.2773401,-118.15242639999997 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:378@sbvaa.org DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20260912T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20260912T220000 DTSTAMP:20251231T002143Z URL:https://sbvaa.org/events/2026-september-star-party-bennett/ SUMMARY:September Star Party (Bennett) DESCRIPTION:Please refer to Tom's email for the star party details and sign up here to inform members that you are going.\n\nMoon Phase:  2 days aft er the New Moon \n\n\nSunset: 6:57 pm\n\nWeather:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClear Sky Chart:\n\n\nStar Party Etiquette:\nAs with all star parties\, please obser ve standard star party etiquette.
