How to volunteer for Bryce + camping
Can someone remind me how to volunteer for the Astronomy Festival at Bryce this year? I love to take my scope down (10" SCT) as I have done in years past. I would also like to get in on the free camping at the group campsite, if that is offered again this year. Any help? I did see a spot to "Add me to the list" on the SLAS website for the "special star party" on the calendar. Is that the way? Thanks, Dion
Hi Dion, Subject: Bryce Canyon Astronomy Festival June 25-28, 2014 The Bryce Canyon Astronomy Festival, June 25-28, 2014 will be a fabulous event this year. The Keynote Speaker will be Australia's award-winning photographer and amateur astronomer Alex Cherney. For more details about Alex see http://vimeo.com/terrastro. Details about the festival can be found at http://www.nps.gov/brca/planyourvisit/astrofest.htm. Again, we appreciate the efforts of Kevin Poe and his ranger team for planning another great festival. If you would like to participate as a volunteer I need the following information emailed to me at djcolton@piol.com : 1. First and Last Name. 2. Vehicle Make 3. Vehicle License 4. Telescope kind and size. 5. Do you want free camping? Free camping will be provided in the park. I also need to know if you will be bringing a trailer or motor home since we try to put them in the North Campground subject to availability. 6. Nights you would like to volunteer. The last bus from the public star party usually leaves around 12:30 AM. After that you are free to remain and observe for yourselves until dawn. We will have a white light exit for those who wish to leave at 1 AM. Please be sure to provide all of the above requested information. Contact me at djcolton@piol.com if you have any questions.
