Club Star Party

On Saturday 19 May HAS will hold a Members only star party at the Columbus Observatory site.

All HAS members and their family members are invited to attend.

Gates will be opened at 2:00pm on Saturday.

For those who have not yet been to the site, at 3:00 pm a caravan will depart from the Chevron Station on the NW corner of the I-10 feeder road and Business 71 in Columbus (main Columbus exit). Please email me off list if you will be using the caravan - I will make a list so we don't miss anyone!

The Observatory light policy will be observed with 10 min (give or take) light windows called at 12:00am and 2:00am (we are on daylight savings time) See observatory site guide on the HAS website for further info

A camp dinner (stew with potatoes, salad, tea and water) will be served at 5:00pm

Bring your red flashlight, snacks and drinks for the observing field.

Please email Don Selle, the club Star Party Coordinator to indicate your interest to caravan, and RSVP for dinner.

We had about 25 people respond for our clouded out date in March - lets see if we can top that number!
