We are looking forward to seeing the RAC, CHAOS, and Alamance club
members tomorrow night at 7:00 pm at Morehead Planetarium and Science
Center.
This is always a fun evening and we hope you will join us - and bring
your family and friends.
The plan is to gather around 7:00 pm for socializing. The Physics and
Astronomy folks (Dan Reichart and Brian Pohl) will have the observatory
open for you to look through the 24" telescope there. By 7:40 we should
be back in the Star Theater for a tour of 2008-09 sky highlights with
Amy Sayle. Then we want to spend a little time anticipating the
International Year of Astronomy (2009) and the ways we might celebrate
together and share our passion for the stars in programs, observing
sessions, and special events.
If these plans run smoothly, by 8:30 or so we can wrap things up and
adjourn to a neighborhood establishment for more socializing.
A few logistics: On the university campus parking is always an issue.
Street parking at the meters is free after 6. Our parking lot will cost
you $1.25/hour. Parking decks on Rosemary Street are that much or more.
The gift shop will be *closed* for business tomorrow night, but we
*will* be entering through the gift shop door - and then locking it once
everyone is back in the theater. (Please plan to return another time for
cool science stocking stuffers.)
If there are traditions of our club meetings that you would like to
share with the rest of us, just let me know. If you have any special
requests, advance notice will certainly facilitate their execution (i.e.
email me now).
See you tomorrow.
Mickey
