Friday, 26 Sep 2008
@ 18:00Hrs
Venue: Waharau Outdoor Centre
Speaker/Host:
David Moorhouse
The Auckland Astronomical Society has arranged another informal and fun astronomical get-together weekend at the Waharau Outdoor Education Centre, located in the regional park north of Kaiaua on the Firth of Thames on the 4th-6th July. We will be there rain or shine, so still bring your telescope that needs collimating, fixing or if you just need some assistance. We will have a few space or astronomy based DVDs if the weather turns against us to watch with the fire going :-)
These weekends are an ideal way for new and established members to meet each other, find out more about the different types of telescopes which many members bring to the occasion and learn about new aspects of the night sky and its wonders.
For more information or to make a booking phone Dave on 0274 819 089.
