Houston Arboretum – Spring Equinox Star Party, rain or (star)shine, Houston Arboretum, Houston, TX - Setup 6:30 PM
Bill Flanagan will be coordinating a Star Party at the Houston Arboretum on Saturday, March 21st. As part of our community outreach program, the HAS periodically shares the wonders of the night sky through our telescopes with guests at the Houston Arboretum.
This coming event will focus on the Spring Equinox. We are estimating about 75 guests at the event and Bill is looking for some volunteers to help out. There is more information about the event on the Houston Arboretum website at http://houstonarboretum.org/events/spring-equinox-star-party-032115/ . The event officially starts at 7:00 pm and runs to 10:00 pm. Sunset is at 7:36 pm. We will be arriving at the Arboretum at 6:30 pm to get set up in plenty of time before our guests start arriving at the meadow as it starts getting dark.
Please let Bill know if you would like to volunteer to help with this event and he will put you on the volunteer list he sends to the Arboretum. If you are a new member or if you haven’t participated in outreaches before, give this one a try, you will enjoy it!
Contact Bill Flanagan if you have any questions or would like to volunteer.
