Thank you, Jon, Robert, and Kumar! 

During the astronomy portion of the paddle, I'll focus on what's visible 
to the naked-eye.  Will also likely mention Albireo and the Andromeda 
galaxy, so those would be great to show them.  And Jupiter if it's not 
too low. 

But anything you'd like to show them would be great!  You can expect 
that most will be novices and may not linger long at the scopes.
