> I am the parent organizer of the Science and Technology Night at  
> Scroggs Elementary School of Chapel Hill which will  be held on  
> Thursday, February 25, 2010 from 6-8pm. We would love to have  
> members of the Chapel Hill Astronomical and Observational Society  
> take part at this event.
>
> The program is divided into of two parts. The first hour consists of  
> community/parent-sponsored hands-on demonstrations at various booths  
> focusing on scientific and technological wonders encountered in a  
> specific field.  Students go from booth to booth where they learn  
> about a topic and/or work out special puzzles/problems.  We would  
> greatly appreciate it if your organization would volunteer to set up  
> a display booth to educate our students about astronomy. The format  
> and content of the presentation will be entirely up to you.
>
> During the second hour there are teacher-led classroom  
> presentations.  Our audience is mainly pre-school to 5th grade  
> students and their families.  We generally get 400-500 visitors.
>
> Some time ago I took my children for a CHAOS-sponsored observation  
> at Jordan Lake.  My kids were amazed by your equipment and  
> presentation.  I was impressed by the patience and generosity of  
> your members.  Thats why I thought CHAOS would be perfect for our  
> Science Night.  I know our students will be thrilled and greatly  
> benefit from your participation.  If you are interested or want more  
> information please let me know.
