Event

Hi,

My name is John Colbert. I am helping put together a lecture series that takes place in New Piasa Chautauqua. We are wondering if someone from the River Bend Astronomy club may be available to lead some astronomy-based events at New Piasa Chautauqua, along the Mississippi between Elsah & Grafton, IL. 

We host a lecture series that takes place on Monday mornings at 10:45am throughout the summer. We're interested in the possibility of a lecture about the current state of astronomy, perhaps featuring recent discoveries from the James Webb telescope. 

We'd also be intersted in hosting a night sky viewing event if that's a possility.

We have some flexitilty around timing for both events.  Is this something that your club could help us with? 

Thanks!

John
