Merle,

Thank you posting the schedule. Should we plan for a spring cleaning party the weekend before (March 3rd)? If we are I would like to signup

I got a subtle little vibe from Dave last night at the MAS meeting about the public star party I had scheduled on July 14, the last day of ALCON.

When I did the schedule a couple of years ago, it was a toss up weather to go with July 14 or 21 for the public night. The 14th does keep pace with the 2 week interval, but the 21st will be a better lunar phase, Mercury and Venus will be slightly better and everyone will be free to attend ALCON.

I think you'll all agree with the change to move the public night to the 21st of July.

The link to the schedule above has been changed. *** Please disregard any schedule that has a star party scheduled on July 14 ***
