Since Joe Bauman asked why the dirth of postings, here is one. Is anyone planning or interested in any pre-Messier Marathon observing sessions? Friday night looks like a possibilty for a few hours, and Sunday night looks like it has some potential, weather-wise. Does anyone know whether the pit-n'-pole is dry or muddy? Any other dry sites less light polluted than SPOC? Mike Bailey
Anyone interested in attending the Bryce Canyon Star Party (June 1-4, 2005) for at least two nights please contact me at djcolton@piol.com, if you haven't already. The Park will provide free camping at Sunset Campground and free admission if you help out with the public star party from 9:00-11:30 PM, after 11:30 PM it essentially becomes a private star party till dawn. The star party this year will be across the highway from the visitors center in a bigger parking lot than we had last year. It also provides a better southeast horizon. On Saturday night - Sunday morning Kevin Poe promises to have his bacon wrapped filets again for all participants. We hope to have at least 50 scopes for the event. All participants must attend one volunteer orientation session. They will be held Wednesday, Thursday and Friday at 5:30 PM (?). Clear Skies Don Colton
It looks like I forgot to respond when I first received your email - sorry. I am planning on being there all four nights and I will need a campsite. One or two family members may want to come. If they bring scopes would there be enough room for them to join us at the campground? Kim ----- Original Message ----- From: Don J.
