THIS WEEK'S EVENTS 2/14, 2/16, 2/20, 2/24 RSVP TODAY!

TO HAVE EVENTS OR NOT TO HAVE THEM? THAT IS THE QUESTION AT HAND....

Happy Monday to you.

This week and next we have 4 events we need to discuss.

2/14 is a PVCC Star Party from 6pm to 10pm. If the weather holds out and the temps stay as warm as they were for this past weekend, we should have a very good turnout. Rod is the RSVP, and Rod, Chet and Don will be doing this star party. If you plan to attend, let Rod know, today. Visible that night: Sunset 6pm, Moon 5pm, Mars 6:30pm, Saturn rises 7pm. We may wish to set up at 5:30 to catch the setting sun. Rod can make this decision when you RSVp. WEATHER PERMITTING!!!

2/16 is a Mars party at PV Park, 6pm to 10pm. Rod has mentioned that if no public RSVP's are received by him by 4pm that day, he will be canceling the star party. If you plan to help out, please let him know so he can cancel with you if needed. Visible that night: Sunset 6pm, Moon, Mars 6:30pm, Saturn rises 7pm.

2/20 TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE - If there are no RSVP's Rod will be canceling this star party. The idea is that you can see it from your home, and so, if you didn't want to see anything BUT the eclipse, as far as details on the moon or other objects that night, you don't have to drive to PV Park 6pm to 10pm where the star party will be held. Send your RSVp to Rod today, and watch for a cancellation by 4pm this day.
Visible that night: Sunset & Moon rise 6:10pm, Mars 6:30pm, Saturn rises 6:30pm. The eclipse lasts from Moon rise to 10pm-ish.

2/24 Bookman's. Rod is the RSVP for this telescope workshop. Please let him know you can assist or are attending. I will not be available for help at this workshop. RSVP today. 4:30 to 6:30pm. Dinner after will be decided by group attending, as it may not be at Carlos O'Briens. Email Rod with your suggestions for dinner. Rod_Sutter@yahoo.com
