Event Report

Comments and anecdotes about the event:
The park is very nice and it is a great location. The park provided a ramada (#5) for us and it was very helpful having a couple of tables. The park put a lot of signage and flyers out for us and that was very helpful. The park was very busy. In the morning we had some folks come to view the sun but most folks were there for sports or birthday parties. The result was a low turnout (36), but we had great discussions with many of the folks that came to the scopes. I think it is worth doing again.
