March B-SIG Meeting

Post by Sureshks »

Hi all,

The March Beginner's Special Interest Group (B-SIG) meeting is scheduled for Saturday March 19th from 12:30pm-2:00pm at the Hopkins Public Library.

Hopkins Library Meeting Room
Address: 22 11th Ave N, Hopkins, MN 55343
Phone:(612) 543-6400

The topic will be "Your First Telescope!"

If you're planning to come, please e-mail me at sureshks1@msn.com so I can keep track.

Also, if you got a new telescope over the holidays and are trying to figure out how to use it... this will be a great opportunity! We'll try to help you after the presentation either in the conference room, or in the parking lot.

Hi Heather,

I'm not sure if I responded to you via e-mail. But if not, awesome!! I'll see you there!

What kind of telescope do you have?
