SLAS - Arcadia Elementary School Star Party
Hi, Calling for a Celestron CPC operator to help with tomorrow night's school star party. The teacher in charge of the star party, Dan Boone, said that the school has a new CPC 11" scope and he would like some help with getting it set up. I found the simplest way to get to Arcadia is to travel east or west bound on 4700 South to Simper Lane (3400 W). Turn southbound on Simper to 4850 South. The school is across the intersection at 4850 South and 3461 West. The star party is from dusk to 10:00 p.m. weather permitting. Clear Skies, Mike Morrison
Hi Mike, You might want to suggest he attend a star party at SPOC (the next one is Saturday evening). The ADA (handicap access) telescope there is a goto C-11 and I'm sure the folks who run it would be happy to show Mr. Boone how to run his C-11. Also, if he's planning any road trips this year he might want to take in one of the star parties at Bryce Canyon as they also have similar scope ( http://users.wirelessbeehive.com/~paw/STARPARTIES.HTML ). patrick On 23 Apr 2008, at 18:45, Michael Morrison wrote:
