Ann, did you receive and fill-out the "2007 SLAS VIP Agreement" for the Park? There's a lot more information there. Don Colton had copies to distribute, but if you didn't get one, email me offline and I can send you a Word file to fill out and send to the Park.

We have signed up (if my husband doesn't get one of his recurring sinus infections that keep ruining our trips) and we were wondering how the event works? Is it like at SPOC where you can drive up and set our your scope and all accompanying goodies, or (especially if we are staying in a room, not camping) do you have to haul things into a special site? About what time to the crowds leave so that we can do some of our own observing and, last but not least (to me, anyway) how cold/windy is it typically? Any recommendations on things we should bring--besides our scope and basics? Thanks for any info! Ann M. Blanchard Executive Assistant to the Assoc.

The thing that gets me is how hard it is to pick out constellations when all those spangles up there are obscuring the familiar patterns.
